Immigrating after 60: Information experiences of older Chinese migrants to Australia and Canada
作者：
Highlights：
• Reporting on a qualitative study with 16 Chinese older adults who were recent immigrants to Australia and Canada
• Migrating late in life presents some unique characteristics and challenges.
• We extend the translocal meaning making framework by assessing whether social imaginaries can be shared across contexts.
• Findings include daily rituals and coping mechanisms of the late-life migrants, and associated information activities.
• We draw implications for understanding this under-studied migrant population and designing information support for them.
