A preprint version of Joan Lippincott's article "Information Commons: Meeting Millennials' Needs," which was published in the January 2010 issue of the Journal of Library Administration, is now freely available online from the CNI Web site:


Article Abstract
Information commons are popular with Millennial or Net Generation students, who often work in groups, use technology avidly, and combine their academic and social lives.  Enhancing the configuration of services for the information commons can assist in leveraging the value of the available content, hardware, software and physical setting to support learning and academic programs.  Understanding Millennial students’ style is key to developing a robust service program to engage and support them.
