Only connect ... discovery pathways library explorations and the information adventure

Librarians learning support and academic staff could benefit from knowing more about the pathways that learners take through academic information: how they perceive model and negotiate the information environment. With a richer understanding of our learners' individual journeys we can make our interventions more relevant and more timely; we can structure our courses to allow pathfinding to develop; and we can help our learners to navigate reflectively through the sea of information. We present a range of information discovery journeys from reflections upon formal search processes to a library fairy story. This book represents the richness of information discovery.
