Information Literacy of Elderly People: Bridging the Digital Gap
Original language description
The aim of this paper is to present the methods and results of qualitative research focused on the use of the Internet by senior citizens in the Czech Republic. These results offer a unique insight into the situation which is terminologically described as a secondary digital divide. The purpose of the qualitative research was to recognize and describe what topics seniors are interested in, what their motivation to use the Internet is and how and why they search for information. The outcomes define the senior citizens' fields of interest, information behaviour and the level of their searching skills. The research is part of a doctoral thesis oriented to elderly people, their information literacy skills and secondary digital gap.
