Supporting students in an increasingly digital information environment: A literature review

Shaw, Pauline

Abstract

This literature review was carried out as part of the Future Library project. The recommendations focus on the following key areas:

- Increased focus on the quality of ebooks that we provide access to; lobbying publishers to improve their digital interfaces and seeking to reduce barriers to use of content in our context e.g. by identifying resources with enabling rights management in our learning context
- Continued work on usability testing and exploring the learner experience of digital content and ebooks
- Developing our academic skills offer to support effective use of digital content and ebooks; including work with students on developing good study habits and techniques for reading and concentration in an increasingly digital environment
- Reviewing our enquiry services to make sure that all our staff are able to support our students to use all our digital resources and technologies in our spaces
