Abstract

A new area access to the information was developing by using, not only in educational area, but also in research area, the digital literature. For young people using modern technology is not only an opportunity, but, in the same times a modality of living. New technology give to young generation a possibility to communicate, to be informed about the news, to have access to the research results, and more and more to the educational fields. But using technology could raise some problems, like reducing the communication face to face, or developing some diseases like addiction. That's why is very important to use in a critical way this facilities and to develop all the skill which are needed not only for using this new methods in education, but for ensure the widespread of knowledge and scientific information. The debate now is about 'digital literacy'. Article is presenting one qualitative marketing research about opinion of medical engineering students about open access principle and using of these electronic resources properly.
