    Vilar, Polona ; Južnič, Primož ; Bartol, Tomaž, BF
    The paper presents a segment of a survey of information behaviour of Slovenianscientists. Results show that, in most areas, Slovenian researchers exhibit usual characteristics of scientists ... elsewhere, with the exception of arather weak use of Web 2.0 tools for research purposes, and weak use of open-access materials. This survey confirms that information and communication technologies (ICT) strongly impact professional activities of scientists, in relation to the choice of resource formats, access to information, means of information exchange, organization of onećs own resources, reading, writing, and the use of library services. Most of the characteristics in behaviour are research-field-specific. Other factors of influence are age, area of employment, and available time; gender difference was important only in one case.
