Perrett, Valerie
Australian Library Journal, v59 n1-2 p23-29 Feb-May 2010
In a survey of Business and Government, Law and Information Sciences students carried out at the University of Canberra, results showed that in-curricula information literacy skills training had a greater impact on students' satisfaction with access to high demand material than the purchase of additional copies of books. This paper will discuss the results of this survey. (Contains 3 footnotes and 7 figures.)
