Information Needs Study

About

This project is an example of my ability to research and understand complex subjects, compile information and write reports that summarize the information while creating a relevant link between the information and library services.

Understanding specific user groups helps libraries to better serve the people in our community and helps us develop vital services.

For this project, I spent 6 weeks reading and analyzing research about women with breast cancer, the types of information they need, and how they search for information, and identify how libraries can connect with this user group by providing them with resources they need and trust.
