I am writing a grant application and in it I would like to say something about the amount of time researchers (particularly) life sciences spend accessing or using the scientific literature. Also I think I have read somewahre about the % of research that is repeated that is already reported in the literature. Can anyone give me citations for this stuff. I have already documented the impact of practitioners using literature with Joanne Marshalls study but I am trying to show the imporatnce of the researchers also using literature which I feel they do so I think it is harder to rpove. Thansk for your help Lea Starr Reference services, John W. Scott Health Sciences Library University of Alberta, Edmonton [log in to unmask]
