Abstract


Citapen village is a fracture clinic village that applies traditional medicine rich of local knowledge. The fracture therapist has a different paradigm with local health institution. Therefore, this research aims to discover the information behaviour of (bone) fracture therapist. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method through interview, observation, and literature review. The research results show the needs of traditional medicine information are related to economic, social and cultural needs. The information seekers are searching for traditional medicine information from both internal and external sides. In information evaluation, the therapist searches information on the traditional medicine in Citapen Village, which is then applied to the patients, from one to another. The existence of traditional medicine which is rich in local knowledge in Citapen village has not been appropriately documented. However, the information is still able to be well memorized by being inherited from generations. Even though there are many clinics built in the village, when it comes to bone fracture, many people will go to fracture therapist to get traditional medicine.
