Information Behavior of the Researcher of the Future

"This study was commissioned by the British Library and JISC to identify how the specialist researchers of the future, currently in their school or pre-school years, are likely to access and interact with digital resources in five to ten years' time. This is to help library and information services to anticipate and react to any new or emerging behaviours in the most effective way. In this report, we define the 'Google generation' as those born after 1993 and explore the world of a cohort of young people with little or no recollection of life before the web"
