  • Total Information Centers. Tenopir, Carol Business Information Centers Information Systems Library Administration Library Role Library Services Special Libraries Many small and medium-sized companies see a library as a luxury they cannot afford. They may have room set aside with a small collection of books, periodicals or reports, yet the use of this often unsupervised storage system is minimal at best. These same companies, however, usually place great importance on maintenance of and access to correspondence and job files; on referral to and modification of engineering and architectural drawings; on creation and organization of public relations slide presentations; and on referral to company generated reports. A comprehensive information center with professional retrieval systems, clear organization, collection control, and knowledgeable help in locating and utilizing all materials, can be a critical financial resource and active focal point in the small or medium-sized company.
