How do people become informed about risk and why is this important? This book draws upon three case studies to interrogate risk's informational thread, including how people map and orient themselves to risk information as well as how these activities shape their increasingly knowledgeable performance within a risk situation.

Dr Alison Hicks is an Associate Professor in Library and Information Studies at University College, London (UCL). Her research examines how information literacy practices help people to cope with uncertainty, including risk and transition, within academic, health, everyday and work contexts. She is additionally interested in qualitative, visual and participatory research methods. She was the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Information Literacy from 2020-2025.
