JUSTEIS: JISC Usage Surveys: Trends in Electronic Information Services

Two strand project: Strand A concerned with the uptake and use of electronic information services among students and staff (user behaviour study using a critical incident technique); Strand C concerned with a survey of EIS provision. The trends are being monitored over several cycles. Cycle Two completed in July 2001, Cycle Three starts in October 2001. The project work is being extended to cover the FE sector as well as the HE sector. In Cycle Two 25 HEIs and 40 departments contributed to Strand A and surveys were made of nearly 50 HEI LIS websites (Strand C). In addition, a survey of EIS purchasing intentions was conducted at 10 sites.
