人们对实体图书馆使用的各个方面进行了大量的研究，但对他们与图书馆人工制品（即书籍，期刊和论文）的相互作用的研究相对较少。我们研究了人们在实体图书馆工作时的行为，特别关注他们如何与这些人工制品互动，他们如何评估它们，以及他们如何与图书馆员互动。这项研究提供了一个更好的了解人们如何与纸质信息，从中我们可以得出一些数字图书馆的设计要求的影响，同时认识到，“图书馆”一词是一个比喻时，应用到电子文档收藏。特别是，改善与图书馆其他用户和图书管理员的沟通，可以便利更迅速地获得有关信息和支助服务，而安排信息的编排方式，使用户能够迅速评估其相关性，将提高许多信息搜索的效率。
There has been substantial research on various aspects of people’s usage of physical libraries but relatively little on their interaction with individual library artefacts; that is: books, journals, and papers. We have studied people’s behaviour when working in physical libraries, focusing particularly on how they interact with these artefacts, how they evaluate them, and how they interact with librarians. This study provides a better understanding of how people interact with paper information, from which we can draw implications for some requirements of the design of digital libraries, while recognising that the term ‘library’ is a metaphor when applied to electronic document collections. In particular, improved communication with other library users and with librarians could facilitate more rapid access to relevant information and support services, and structuring information presentation so that users can make rapid assessments of its relevance would improve the efficiency of many information searches.
