contents Artists as Scholars: The Research Behavior of Dance Faculty Robinson, Shannon Marie Dance College Faculty Academic Libraries Artists Interviews Librarians Higher Education Research Projects Music Music Education Scholarship Dance Education Theater Arts The research behaviors and library use of dance scholars are widely unknown, particularly in regard to issues of access to historical materials and new technology preferences. In the past thirty years, college and university dance departments in the United States have developed into independent, research-based programs. Despite the lack of current research examining the information needs of dance scholars, academic librarians must support the performance, research, and pedagogy of these programs. Interviews with dance faculty from three diverse institutions of higher education provide exploratory data about these scholars' research needs. This qualitative study provides context for dance faculty experiences as both artists and teachers.
