Abstract Contemporary e-mails, blogs, online dictionaries and encyclopedias are very important sources of obtaining information. Information exchange between Internet users is growing exponentially. Social media such as MySpace, YouTube, Facebook and Wikipedia contributed to this phenomenon. In this way, the sphere of mutual interactions become increasingly virtualized. The purpose of this paper is to analyze whether and to what extent the students of the Faculty of Management and Administration in Kielce UJK use Wikipedia, and what is their assessment of the usefulness of Wikipedia research activities (i.e. preparing for courses /exams, writing a BA thesis).
