Thesis (M.L.I.S.)--Dalhousie University (Canada), 2001.

In this thesis I sought to explore the use of people as information sources in information seeking by Maritime Canadian Biblical Studies researchers. The intention was to determine what role these information sources play in the resolution of a research problem and to determine whether the use of electronic communication has chanced the role of people as information sources in research. Since no research has been conducted on information seeking behaviour in Biblical Studies, and little has been done on the use of people as sources in Humanities research, this study was exploratory and qualitative in nature. Interviews were conducted using a series of informal semi-structured questions.

520 $a In this thesis I sought to explore the use of people as information sources in information seeking by Maritime Canadian Biblical Studies researchers. The intention was to determine what role these information sources play in the resolution of a research problem and to determine whether the use of electronic communication has chanced the role of people as information sources in research. Since no research has been conducted on information seeking behaviour in Biblical Studies, and little has been done on the use of people as sources in Humanities research, this study was exploratory and qualitative in nature. Interviews were conducted using a series of informal semi-structured questions.
520 $a The data demonstrated that the majority of the respondents regularly use people as information sources in conducting their research. However, people, as information sources, were not easily identifiable until the respondents were asked directly if they consulted people in their information seeking process. The need being met by the people information sources was affective in nature. The respondents sought the opinions and judgments of their colleagues as to the direction and viability of their research projects. Although, face-to face communication was the most common form of communication with these people, email was frequently used as a means of communication with distant sources. It remains unclear if email has actually increased the use of people as information sources.
