摘要：This study aims to increase our understanding about information seeking behavior via a field study, mediating user-and system-centered approach. In the user-centered view, we investigate if the information type and value offering channels vary according to information seeking purpose. In addition, we examine which channel the users select for the purpose of information use under the system-centered approach, and what differences occur depending on variables such as researchers' affiliation and research capabilities. We try to identify characteristics of users in Korea and how they are differentiated with others. A survey was made online over 4 weeks and 921 usable responses were left and used. We suggested five hypotheses in research framework and examine these statistically. In conclusion, we derived some insights for national S&T information service strategies from three perspectives - information service, information brokerage and negotiator perspective against worldwide publishing companies
