Abstract

The article discusses a study that investigated the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the experiences of early-career academics' information behavior, in relation to information acquisition and sharing, leading to information overload and avoidance. It provides practical suggestions to universities to support early-career academics during this time, including limiting mass emails and tailoring information to specific academic communities.
