UKSG Conference 2015 - Through a behavioural lens darkly: how ethnography can illuminate research into users Bryony Ramsden University of Huddersfield and Gareth J Johnson Nottingham Trent University
This session combines discussion prompted by two areas of current research into issues in academic libraries. Using ethnographic methods in libraries: this section of the session is based on Bryony’s research on user behaviour in academic libraries. She discusses how ethnographic-based research is a method increasingly utilised in all kinds of libraries to discover how spaces, services and resources are used. Ethnographic methods can provide extremely revealing data, allowing library services to delve deeper into usage patterns and the relationships staff have with their visitors, thus enabling user-centred improvements to services and designs. Dysfunction and resistance to open access: this section is based on Gareth’s ethnographically framed research into cultural effects impacting on academics’ reactions to emerging paradigms of openness in scholarly communication. The session will discuss how institutional and national environments may be shaping academics’ behaviour and attitudes. In particular the session will consider how these relate to the practical obstacles to achieving increased academic open access buy-in, faced by staff seeking to promote effective open access within their organisations.
