Results of the Fellows Information Needs Survey: The Importance of Online Access

Earlier this year, the NIH Library surveyed 501 fellows to learn more about their information needs and habits. The fellows are an important segment of the NIH community and we wanted to find out what we could do to make their time here easier. Ten key findings emerged from the survey, including a preference for online access.
