Finding Information in (Very Large) Digital Libraries: A Deep Log Approach to Determining Differences in Use According to Method of Access
Nicholas, David; Huntington, Paul; Jamali, Hamid R.; Tenopir, Carol
Journal of Academic Librarianship, v32 n2 p119-126 Mar 2006
This report presents the early findings of an exploratory deep log analysis (DLA) of journal usage on OhioLINK, reporting on the information seeking methods of users. Compared to the users who sought information by browsing journals, those who conducted searches to find information and articles tended to record longer session times and viewed more articles and journals. Search engine users were also more likely to view old articles.
