ความต้องการและการใช้สารนิเทศบนอินเทอร์เน็ต ของนักวิจัยด้านไทยศึกษา / วาสนา บุญจูง = Information needs and uses on the Internet by Thai studies researchers / Wassana Boonchung
To study the information needs and uses on the Internet by Thai studies researchers, in terms of purposes, subject content, format, language, frequency of use, location of use, information sources and service on the Internet as well as problems encountered. Research findings reveal that most reseachers use Internet 1-3 times a week from their offices/institutions for searching information from various sources. They use ethnic groups/Tai subject, while need city/environment subject. Format that researchers use is bibliography, while full text is needed. They mostly use information in english but information in Thai are needed. Most researchers need and use education organization information sources. They mostly use electronic mail service and need World Wide Web (WWW) service. The problems that the majority of researchers encounter are : they have not enough times for using the Internet and do not know about Thai studies information sources on the Internet; the computers are of low qualities and there are not enough computers for servicing; it takes long time for searching; and there are not enough public relations about Thai studies information sources on the Internet.
