Google generácia je pojem, ktorý sa rozšíril zároveň so sprístupňovaním internetu a jeho služieb širokej verejnosti. Zrodila sa nová generácia mladých ľudí a nech už ich označíme akokoľvek, ich hlavnou črtou je to, že najnovšie technológie a služby, ktoré so sebou prináša dnešná doba sú súčasťou ich života prakticky od narodenia. Informačné správanie tejto skupiny ľudí je špecifické, a tak ako sa neustále vyvíja prostredie internetu a s ním spojené technológie, tak sa neustále vyvíja aj informačné správanie Google generácie.
