In a nutshell: Studying a specific group (e.g. doctors, lawyers, teacher, etc.,) information seeking / retrieving habit through observation or interviews, questionnaires and surveys.

Information seeking behaviour refers to the way people search for and utilize information. information seeking behaviour as the totality of human behaviour in relation to sources and channels of information, including both active and passive information-seeking, and information use. Information Seeking behaviour is the micro-level of behaviour employed by the searcher in interacting with information systems of all kinds, be it between the seeker and the system, or the pure method of creating and following up on a search.
Dear Ms. Pareek,
You may get lot of articles in the journal University News published by Association of Indian Universities, New Delhi and I presume many of the Indian library Science journals like IASLIC BULLETIN, ILA BULLETIN have published articles on this topic. If I am not wrong Information seeking patterns and/or Information seeking habits (which is by and large same as what you have mentioned in your post) are one the fondest topic for Ph.D and M.Phil in Library Science. in our country!! However, as I understand, with the variation of nature and standard of clienteles, and of course the libraries, the behavior varies.
