Pew Internet and American Life Project survey, “Information Searches That Solve Problems�
New report from the Pew Internet and American Life Project survey, “Information Searches That Solve Problems�
This report looks fantastic. This is from the ALA site:
Members of Generation Y (ages 18–30) are the leading users of libraries for help in solving problems and in more general patronage, according to a Pew Internet and American Life Project survey, “Information Searches That Solve Problems� (PDF file). The survey results challenge the assumption that libraries are losing relevance in the internet age. Libraries drew visits by more than half of Americans (53%) in the past year for all kinds of purposes.

The 42 page report is co-produced by the Graduate School of Library and Information Science at the University of Illinois.
