Abstract

A case study was used to define information needs of professionals in an active exhibit design firm. Structured, open ended interviews served as the data collection instrument. Information as how users gather and use needed information was compiled. Information was often collected through similar actions by different users. Personal experiences of colleagues served as commonly used sources. Text sources were used when available, but reliance on them was minimal. The main conclusion is that this design firm would benefit from the use of centralized information sources and, although this conclusion is applicable to the exhibit design and the design field in general, the technical nature of this environment and its subject matter may not provide a suitable acreer alternative for the art librarian
