Zusammenfassung:	Use of touch devices by toddlers and preschoolers : observations and findings from a single-case study / Naresh Kumar Agarwal -- Depicting the intersection between information-seeking behavior and information literacy in the research process : a model / Valerie Nesset -- Social capital and academic help seeking : late adolescents use of people as information sources / Audrey Laplante -- Young girls' affective responses to access and use of information and communication technology (ICT) in information-poor societies / Dania Bilal, Valerie Jopeck -- InfoMe : a field-design methodology for research on ethnic minority youth as information mediaries / Karen E. Fisher ... [et al.] -- Perspectives of rural librarians about the information behaviors of children with special needs in the southern and central Appalachian region : an exploratory study to develop user-centered services / Bharat Mehra -- The social information grounds of Maori secondary school students / Spencer C. Lilley -- A failure to connect : the elusive relationship between broadband access and children's information seeking in American academic research / Laura I. Spears, Marcia A. Mardis -- Interface design : the impact of images and catalog organization on the information retrieval of children ages five to eight while subject browsing / Stacy Creel -- Designing an intervention tool for students with students / Jamshid Beheshti ... [et al.] Modern research shows that children and adolescents encounter challenges and obstacles in searching for information, retrieving relevant results and have difficulty interpreting results within various information environments. However, a recent paradigm shift points to the changed information behavior of the new generation of users, known now as "digital natives"; born after the advent of the Web. Technologically savvy, they skim and surf for information, multi-task, search collaboratively and share information on social networks. This book comprises innovative research in three main themes: information behavior of various age groups; special populations including ethnic minorities, indigenous peoples, and users with disabilities; research and reflections on designing systems that help the new generation cope with a complex knowledge society. The book is aimed directly at researchers who are aware of the challenges facing the new generation but have not had the opportunity to explore the issues thoroughly. It is also of interest to information professionals, librarians, educators, Web designers, and human-computer interaction researchers
