Známý pro | informační věda |
Nigel Ford je profesor oboru informační vědy, který začal svou kariéru jako knihovník. Jeho hlavním zaměřením se stalo informační chování a v tomto směru vydal mnoho publikací a vědeckých článků. Vystudoval univerzitu v Sheffieldu, kde získal titul magistra v oboru knihovnictví.
Svůj zájem o informační chování získal při práci na Hill College, která je dnes univerzitou. Zde působil jako výchovný knihovník, a začal se zajímat o výchovné aspekty, které ho dovedly k informačnímu chování. Jeho metody učení také pokrývají informační gramotnost, vzdělávací informatiku a aspekty informačního vyhledávání.
Napsal mnoho uznávaných článků, ale jeho největším nejznámějším dílem se stala jeho kniha Introduction to Information Behaviour. Tato učebnice se stala důležitým prvkem pro studenty a zájemce o studium informačního chování.

Říkají o něm
"Nigel is my mentor here at the Department of Information Studies (University of Sheffield). I am involved in numerous research projects with Nigel as we share a common interest in both Educational Informatics and Cognitive Styles, areas where he has been published frequently and has prestigious reviews. Nigel has a keen interest in web 2.0 and web technologies and teachs aspects such as usability, accessability, metacognition and research practice. He is an excellent teacher and a great listener, willing to adapt his constructivist and deep-learning teaching styles to any given situation."
March 3, 2009, Pete reported to Nigel at University of Sheffield
Dílo
Introduction to Information Behaviour
Nejznámějším dílem Nigela Forda je jeho učebnice Introduction to Information Behaviour. Kniha v sobě kombinuje jak teorii, tak praktický kontext, který popisuje co informační chování je, a co o něm víme. Kniha upozorňuje na potřebu nových chápání informačního chování.
Hllavní témata knihy
- Definice informačního chování a proč je užitečné o něm vědět
- Informační potřeby
- Informační vyhledávání a získávání
- Kolaborativní informační chování
- Faktory ovlivňující informační chování
- Modely a teorie informačního chování
- Přístup k výzkumu a metodologie
- Designování informačních systémů
- Budoucí trajektorie výzkumu informačního chování a praxe
Aktivity
- Bývalý člen AHRC Peer Review College
- Redaktor časopisu Journal of Documentation.
- Člen Educational Informatics Research Group na University of Sheffield
Význam pro informační vědu/knihovnictví
Jeho hlavním přínosem se staly jeho objevy o informačním chování a objevy, které tuto disciplínu prohloubili. Jelikož pracoval jako výchovný knihovník a jde o jeho vystudovaný obor, je jednou z významných osobností tohoto oboru.
Úspěchy
- V den 27. Října získal titul Emeritus Professor za jeho „nejvíce význačné služby a příspěvky do Informační školy" (Information school).
