The senior manager's information needs

Abstract

Over the past few years I have been involved with various research teams looking at organisational communication and at the impact that libraries and other information services have on certain kinds of organisations. When we examined information services in various local government settings (including social services departments, local education authorities, planning departments and more general local government services) we found what appears to be an automatic tendency to serve a relatively narrow band of middle management staff at headquarters.
