contents Newspaper Research Information Resource Survey. Kirby, N. Riley, Jr. Kirby, Diana Gonzalez Annotated Bibliographies Information Sources Information Utilization Journalism Newspapers Press Opinion Surveys To let newspaper researchers know the information sources used for various applications and the value of each of the sources, 122 Newspaper Research Council members were surveyed in February 1988 (with a 75% response rate). Questions concerned the frequency of use of various listed sources, and the value, location, and applications for each source. Results indicated that some sources, including "Media Records" and "Research Alert" and on-line databases, were not used by many researchers but were highly rated by those who did use them. The advertising department accounted for most of the researchers' time. Also, very few researchers used the resources of the newspaper library. (An annotated bibliography of handbooks, guides, yearbooks, newsletters, surveys, and trade journals used by newspaper researchers, 29 tables of data, and a copy of the survey are appended.) (MM)
