contents The Value of User Feedback: Academic Library Behaviors and Perceptions of a Community College's Distance Learners Johnson, Cantrell Feedback (Response) Users (Information) Academic Libraries Community Colleges Distance Education Anxiety Psychological Patterns Information Literacy Access to Information Barriers Correlation Undergraduate Students Student Experience Racial Differences Minority Group Students Information Seeking Over 1,200 community colleges nationwide enroll over ten million students annually, with more than one in four students taking online courses. Given postsecondary education's increased focus on resources beyond the classroom, a logical line of exploration is the link between academic library usage and library aptitudes and attitudes. This study examined library behaviors/perceptions of a community college's distance learners. Results were analyzed using well Pearson's r, independent sample t-tests, and ANOVA using composite factors of inexperience, apathy, and anxiety. Correlations suggest as students become more experienced with the library and its resources, anxiety and apathy toward using the library decreases.
