A number of studies in information science literature have been carried out attempting to model cognitive, affective, behavioural and contextual factors associated with music information seeking behaviour. However, only few studies have addressed the relationship between information seeking behaviour and musical creative activities such as composition, performance and improvisation, listening and analysis.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Design\/methodology\/approach<\/jats:title>\n \u2013 The focus of this paper is to provide a framework for the study of information seeking behaviour for the purposes of satisfying musical creativity information needs, combining the theoretical basis of an established model of information behaviour developed by Wilson and the theoretical perspectives of a music creative thinking model proposed by Webster. The key features of the two models are synthesized in a unified model of information seeking behaviour for musical creativity and enriched with research findings identified in the literature of both musical information seeking and musical creativity.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Findings<\/jats:title>\n \u2013 The proposed conceptual framework offers an integrated interpretation of the combinations of information needs, information resources and environmental\/personal barriers, which enable musical creativity. In the authors\u2019 approach \u201cmusical creativity\u201d is treated as a musician\u2019s aim or ambition or drive for expression and is influenced by the way musicians seek information for that purpose. Therefore, musical creativity is an intentional behaviour which acts as motivator for information seeking and is affected by the available information and the musician\u2019s information seeking profile. The current study include three important findings: first, the design and development of music library and information services for musical creativity; second, the development of music information literacy skills for creativity; and third, the information seeking behavioural perspective for universal musical creativity, and the implications for cultural musical heritage diffusion around the world.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Originality\/value<\/jats:title>\n \u2013 An integrated information seeking behaviour model which includes musical creativity is developed through the synthesis of two already existing approaches, that of Wilson for information seeking behaviour and that of Webster for creative thinking in music. The present conceptual study presents a three stage pattern or process for modelling information seeking for musical creativity: the process initiates with the intention-motivation for creativity, then proceeds to information seeking behaviour and then concludes with the musical creativity outcomes. This is the first study that seeks to understand the relationships between creativity and information seeking behaviour.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/jd-10-2014-0139","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,9,2]],"date-time":"2015-09-02T10:53:45Z","timestamp":1441191225000},"page":"1070-1093","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":34,"title":["Music information seeking behaviour as motivator for musical creativity"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"71","author":[{"given":"Charilaos","family":"Lavranos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Petros A.","family":"Kostagiolas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Konstantina","family":"Martzoukou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joseph","family":"Papadatos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"key":"key2020122121022612500_b1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Ashley, J.\n , \n Jarman, F.\n , \n Varga-Atkins, T.\n and \n Hassan, N.\n (2012), \u201cLearning literacies through collaborative enquiry; collaborative enquiry through learning literacies\u201d, \n Journal of information literacy\n , Vol. 6 No. 1, pp. 50-71.","DOI":"10.11645\/6.1.1655"},{"key":"key2020122121022612500_b2","unstructured":"Bainbridge, D.\n , \n Cunningham, S.J.\n and \n Downie, J.S.\n (2003), \u201cHow people describe their music information needs: a grounded theory analysis of music queries\u201d, Proceedings of the 4th International Conference of the Society for Music Information Retrieval (ISMIR\u201903), Baltimore, MD, pp. 221-222."},{"key":"key2020122121022612500_b3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Bates, M.J.\n (1989), \u201cThe design of browsing and berry picking techniques for the online search interface\u201d, \n Online Review\n , Vol. 13 No. 5, pp. 407-424.","DOI":"10.1108\/eb024320"},{"key":"key2020122121022612500_b4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Bawden, D.\n (2001), \u201cInformation and digital literacies: a review of concepts\u201d, \n Journal of Documentation\n , Vol. 57 No. 2, pp. 218-259.","DOI":"10.1108\/EUM0000000007083"},{"key":"key2020122121022612500_b5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Bawden, D.\n (2006), \u201cUsers, user studies and human information behaviour: a three-decade perspective on Tom Wilson\u2019s \u2018on user studies and information needs\u2019\u201d, \n Journal of Documentation\n , Vol. 62 No. 6, pp. 671-679.","DOI":"10.1108\/00220410610714903"},{"key":"key2020122121022612500_b6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Bawden, D.\n and \n Robinson, L.\n (2013), \u201cNo such thing as society?
