- Serving the Needs of Performing Arts Students: A Case Study Mayer, Jennifer Theater Arts Case Studies Focus Groups Interviews User Needs (Information) Music Education Dance Education Library Instruction Reference Services Catalogs Information Seeking Student Behavior College Students The intent of this case study was to gain insight into the information needs and research behaviors of upper-division performing arts students, and how to best address those needs. This article presents findings from focus group interviews of thirty music, dance, and theater majors at the University of Wyoming in Laramie. The data revealed several themes, including that performing arts students have unmet multimedia, primary, and interdisciplinary research needs and that they struggle with the discovery layer and the catalog. The findings have implications for how library instruction and research services should evolve to serve this population.
