The Information Needs and Information-Seeking Behaviors of Community College and Lower-Division Undergraduate Students
Karas, Melissa; Green, Ravonne
Community & Junior College Libraries, v14 n2 p103-109 2007
This article is about the information needs and information-seeking behaviors of community college and lower division undergraduates. The students in the studies were either four year lower division or community college students. The majority of the students studied were average college age students between eighteen and twenty two-years old. A few studies considered students that were older than the average college age. These were important to include because more and more students are older when they begin, or decide to go back, to college.
