CAROL COLLIER KUHLTHAU has been on the faculty of school of communication, information, and library studies, Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, since 1985. She has served as chair of the department and director of the Library and Information Science Master's Degree Program. She has had many awards including the American Library Association Jesse Shera Award for Outstanding Research, the Lazerow Distinguished Lectureship, Department of Library and Information Science, University of California, 1995, the Educational Media Association of New Jersey President's Award, 1997, and the American Association of School Librarians Distinguished Service Award, 2000. Her publications include many books, including the highly regarded first edition of the current book and numerous research articles.
"Kuhlthau's Seeking Meaning is a classic text that is recognized worldwide in library and information science. ...significant in the field of library and information science and especially for our understanding of user information seeking behavior." - Library & Information Science Research
"[L]ibrary and information science departments should adopt Seeking Meaning (2nd edition) as a textbook for educating a new generation of reference librarians. Experienced reference librarians should read it for their professional development. Owners of the first edition should consider purchasing the second for its expanded elaboration of the information search model. Librarians who teach bibliographic instruction and/or research methods should incorporate its findings into their curriculum." - The Australian Library Journal
"If anything the Information Search Process [ISP] model is gaining more currency, making this second edition a timely updating. . . . It is certain that the second edition is replacing the first edition on the shelves of universities and colleges. For the practitioner who may have missed Seeking Meaning the first time round, it is not the intimidating read you might expect. Clearly written, well crafted and, given the nature of the book, free for the most part of jargon." - The Electronic Library
