Sinopsis:

Ideal for those undertaking research in the fields of librarianship and information management, 'Research Methods for Information Management and Systems: Techniques and Questions' is a wide-ranging text that guides students through the literature so that they can pursue their own investigations efficiently and in greater detail. It is structured according to key topics and divided into four parts. Part I introduces the reader to the field of research methods. Part II deals with the broad categories of research, such as surveys, case studies, action research, and ethnography. Part III the focuses on techniques, including sampling, questionnaires and interview design, and focus groups. Part IV then deals with the analysis of data, both quantitative and qualitative, and the evaluation of published research. The final chapter then poses seven questions critical for good researchers.In short, Research Methods: Information, Systems and Contexts is an all-in-one resource addressing research issues specific to the discipline of information science.

Her research has been funded by a range of different organisations including the principal funding body of Australian Universities, the Australian Research Council (ARC). As well as two editions of an earlier research methods book, Research Methods for Students, Academics and Professionals: Information Management and Systems, she has many journal articles to her credit, including five in the highly ranked Library and Information Science Research.
