    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This 30th anniversary edition celebrates the lasting value and enduring legacy of Carol C. Kuhlthau's influential Information Search Process framework.

    The publication of Seeking Meaning in 1993 marked a watershed moment in how we think about information seeking. The Information Search Process (ISP) model it introduced helped generations of educators prepare students for the increasingly complex information environments they would encounter, and its central findings have only grown in importance during the last 30 years.

    Seeking Meaning offers a detailed description of the ISP and a framework for a process approach to library and information services. The ISP has helped to illuminate the user's perspective on information seeking and has offered insights into pressing problems of seeking meaning in an overabundance of information.

    This evergreen text explores the implementation of a process approach to library and information services in education, an investigation of these concepts in the workplace, and a treatment of systems and systems design.

    Kuhlthau's canonical research, accompanied in this anniversary edition by new essays exploring the text's legacy and continued importance, is required reading for students of library and information science in the United States and abroad and an invaluable resource for anyone providing library and information services.
