ABSTRACT

Today’s information services in most archival institutions implement the same administrative procedures for general users and academic researchers, leading to issues hindering the latter’s research activities. As such, this study presents a direction for the effective provision of information services by investigating and analyzing information sources mainly used by academic researchers, who are one of the major user groups; researchers’ use behaviors in archival institutions; and experiences and perceptions on the such institutions’ information services. In particular, surveys and interviews were conducted, and 75 questionnaire responses and 8 interview results were analyzed. The results of the analysis were summarized into the researcher’s background information, information sources used, behaviors in using archival institutions’ services, information service utilization, improvement requirements, and desired services. Through the results’ implications, plans for the provision of information services by archival institutions were proposed based on the researchers’ needs and preferences.
