The study aims in understanding the user search behaviour to let the designers of cultural heritage digital collections websites improve the search tools so that the design matches the real needs of the users. After doing simulated search tasks the informants answered several questions about the chosen search strategies and preferable search functionalities. Quantitative analysis shows that simple search and free keywords are the most preferable search methods, however it is not clear why. On one hand it is observed that the users prefer google-like searching, on the other, discussion on the DigitaltMuseum search functionalities shows lack of use of Knowledge Organisation System of any kind which makes the advanced search tool insufficient. cultural heritage digital collections digital museum information search behaviour information behaviour user search strategy DigitaltMuseum digitala kulturarvssamlingar kulturarv digitalt museum informationssökning informationssökningsbeteende informationsbeteende användare sökstrategi DigitaltMuseum Information Studies Biblioteks- och informationsvetenskap
