Abstract

The results from a survey of 132 U.S. law library professionals reveal useful insights into lawyers' information-seeking behavior. Survey respondents reported most frequently that lawyers preferred using electronic resources and communications, likely for reasons of accessibility, familiarity, and time. These results can help new librarians better educate and train lawyers as well as improve reference services.
