| contents | Vignettes: Implications for LIS Research Benedetti, Allison Jackson, John Luo, Lili Vignettes Library Services Information Literacy Guidelines Information Science Professional Associations Qualitative Research Marketing Evaluation Methods Questionnaires Focus Groups Academic Libraries Research Methodology College Faculty Teacher Attitudes State Universities Structured Interviews Vignettes, brief descriptions of fictional characters and situations, serve as a tool to study people's lives, perceptions, beliefs, and attitudes about specific situations. Although not widely used in library and information science (LIS) research, vignettes can depersonalize responses to controversial situations or behavioral responses related to abstract concepts when employed in focus groups, in-depth interviews, or surveys. We use two research projects, one focused on the Association of College and Research Libraries' "Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education" and one on the vocabulary used to describe library services, to discuss the strengths of vignettes and implications for LIS research. |
