What Determines Your need for Information?
Information seeking is relatively synonymous to the idea of
research. When you locate information, you employ the
necessary skills to engage in the research process. Your
need for information depends on your prior knowledge and
experience, as well as your goals and objectives. Your
information needs to rely on what questions or problems
you would like to solve or, simply, what you need the
information for.
The effective and information seeker.

what information is relevant, thus, limiting the possible overload of
information sought.
