Abstract
ABSTRACTThe current information environment provides many options for individuals in finding information and acquiring resources. It is increasingly necessary for Information Science (IS) researchers to employ user‐centered research methods in order to better identify individuals' information behaviors within their contextual worlds. This panel will provide an overview of some of the novel user‐centered research methods being used globally in information research within various contexts. Focusing on some recent innovative projects ranging from information discovery and access, refugee information behaviors, and cyberbullying, to personal health information management, the panel will examine the benefits, challenges, and implications for IS researchers. The panel will have an interactive component for participants to learn how to incorporate new methodologies in innovative ways within their research to make new meaning from their user studies.
