Abstract:
|
Inspired by Weisberg’s 20 argument that creativity exists in
everyone and on the assumption that every information seeker is creative and
undergoes a creative process in information seeking, this paper synthesizes a
holistic “creativity” model and “information seeking” model to identify stages
in a creative process for information seeking. A pilot study was conducted to
verify these stages and also examine if present digital libraries and information
retrieval environments provide “creative” features to support creative
information seeking. We discussed these initial findings and made
recommendations for further work to better support creative information
seeking in digital libraries and information retrieval environments. |
