Abstract
In an increasingly digitised world where information is ubiquitous the �Google Generation� appear to occupy a position of prime importance when it comes to knowing how to access information. This article looks at practical evidence regarding some of the information behaviours of the subjects of this new generation, as well the differences between students of different ages. We have analyzed the predispositions and search procedures exhibited by 60 undergraduate students (evaluations, motivations, perceived difficulties, searching performances, satisfaction with the process and other valuations). The results are significant and provide new insights into how the informational aptitudes of the cohort investigated have evolved and what might be the educational impact of their new attitudes and search habits
