Readings:
E-Journal Usage and Scholarly Practice: An Ethnographic Perspective on the Role and Impact of E-Journal Usage Among Users of Biomedical Literature
http://ejust.stanford.edu
(handouts will be distributed at the session)
Hattie Jeon-Slaughter will present research findings about the ways in which electronic journals (e-journals) serve scholarly communication, now and in the proximate future, and how changes to e-journals may improve scholarly communication. Analyses are based on in-depth interviews and data collected through a recent online survey. The findings of this study will assist scholars, librarians, and administrators in higher education and research in making individual and collective choices about their contributions to scholarly communication.
Participants in this session will also learn about the interviews and online survey methodologies used, including details about method design tools, costs, implementation, and analysis methods. The presenter will demonstrate how to apply the results of the study to improve communication between e-journal users and librarians.
