Description
Theory Development in the Information Sciences by Diane H. Sonnenwald explores the complexities of the information sciences discipline, which studies how people and organizations create, share, and manage information. Despite its broad scope, there is currently no consensus on the underlying theory of the information sciences. This book brings together reflections from contributors who share their experiences and insights on developing theories in the field. The essays cover a range of topics, including literacy, design, digital search, individual behavior, evaluation, and cultural heritage. By sharing their struggles, challenges, successes, and excitement, the authors aim to inspire and assist individuals seeking to develop and teach theory development. The ultimate goal of this volume is to provide a platform for discussion and exploration of the theory-development process, encouraging readers to engage with new ideas and approaches.
