I’ve been having a hard time narrowing in on the information community I want to work with. I’m really interested in digital artists because I feel like there’s a lot of different ways they can engage with information (art tutorials, selling their art, social media, etc), but I’m having a really hard time locating appropriate sources. I find tons of sources about art and artists, but whenever I try to narrow the search to digital artists, independent artists, etc I can’t find much. Am I going about my search wrong or do I need to rethink my community?
@elenaporton Take a look at the artists example on the synthesis page. You will see how the student used broader studies on the info behavior and needs of artists to craft a view of her community. It is also just fine to use an article that focuses on the information behaviors and needs of creatives in general.
