The iconoclastic study of Reijo Savolainen in 1995 has added a novel concept in the field of information study,namely everyday life information seeking (ELIS). Since then, ELIS study has been continuously growing in the different hands of different scientist employing different kinds of data gathering techniques like Critical Incident method, Focus group interview and Micro-moment Timeline interview etc. Since the study focuses on people's non-occupational information seeking practic, the data gathering techniques have, hitherto, been very carefully handled keeping in mind that people's actual inclination to different sources and channels in ELIS should be minutely and accurately observed. However, there are some areas like ELIS of people with special needs, ELIS of illiterate people have yet to be touched and studied. The present study aims to find the knowledge gap in ELIS study already done up to now and suggest further research areas basing on a thorough study of almost three hundred fulll text research articles pertaining to ELIS study.
