Why is it important?
Previous studies revealed that there is limited research about the use of MITs by LIS students. The current research, therefore, may help faculty members and students, as well as the discipline in general and SVU’s Department of Library and Information Science (DLIS) in particular, to understand the nature and purpose of such use. This study may serve as useful input to researchers who are interested in the study of MITs, particularly in the education discipline.
