We report the results of a user study that captures knowledge on how cultural heritage experts search for information. We use a qualitative study technique with participants from four cultural heritage institutions in the Netherlands who were interviewed and asked to answer questionnaires about their daily work.

The paper provides an analysis and discussion of the issues that experts frequently face when searching for information.
