Design/methodology/approach: Observations of video-recorded public library storytimes were used to investigate the presence and nature of an information environment for young children's learning. Findings: The observations revealed that storytimes provide a rich, multimodal information environment where information is shared with young children and they are encouraged to interact with it in a variety of ways. The storytime participants take on several different roles that help to foster and sustain the information environment. Originality/value: This study tests the applicability of Eisenberg and Small's (1993) information-based education framework for exploring an information environment and recommends revisions to improve the framework's effectiveness for characterizing information environments for young children.
