Thirty-six of the forty-two students discussed an academic information need related to a writing assignment, five students discussed an academic information need that was based on something other than a writing assignment, and one student did not have any academic information need. The academic information needs were analyzed in terms of variables such as type of vision, conditions of visual impairment, secondary school attended, gender, year in college, full or part-time status, major or program of study, and familiarity with the library. |
