With the increasing growth of network information, to keep and use information found are even more important than to search information. However, there is a lack of knowledge about users' information keeping behaviors. This paper provides preliminary results on how users keep information found on the Web for later access. 638 questionnaires and 15 interviews were collected to investigate the information keeping methods used by faculties, librarians, and students in 5 universities. The experimental results include 19 keeping methods, association analysis of users' backgrounds and methods used, and also the evaluation based on the functional analysis of each method. The findings are useful for understanding users' Web information keeping behaviors and improving personal information management system design. |
