Abstract

One hundred ninety three entrepreneurs (193) were surveyed to determine the types of problems which were most frequently encountered and the types of information sources likely to be utilized. General management, operations, finance and market problems were found to be related to certain combinations of information source categories: professional, personal, written, institutional, and electronic. It is concluded that the type of problem encountered by entrepreneurs affects the selection of information sources. Several suggestions are made on how these findings can be used by entrepreneurs in their search for information which bears on their business problems.
