Computer Interfaces Electronic Libraries Information Retrieval Information Seeking Information Systems Learning Strategies Library Skills Observation Online Searching Search Strategies Users (Information) Videotape Recordings Analyzes videotapes of people using the Illinois Digital Library system during tests as well as transcripts and audiotapes from the sessions.
