Information Creation as Process


Definition
Information Creation as a Process refers to the understanding that the purpose, message, and delivery of information are intentional acts of creation. Recognizing the nature of information creation, experts look to the underlying processes of creation as well as the final product to critically evaluate the usefulness of the information. http://libguides.palni.edu/c.php?g=185459&p=1225557
