- Abstract:
- Abstract : 'Inspiration' is a concept that comes up frequently in the Library and Information Science literature on artists and designers. But what do we mean by 'inspiration'? This article discusses a selection of the psychological research on creativity and inspiration, as well as four information behaviour theories that help in finding inspiration - browsing, information encountering, satisficing, and serendipity.
