business information needs studies?

[Avi Rappoport]

Hi folks,

I'm helping some folks set up a site for small and medium-sized 
businesses, and want to expand their thoughts on the kinds of 
information that these groups need.  They are currently focussed on 
company names/stock codes and SIC codes.

I strongly suspect that there are also more general needs like "what 
are the implications of requiring my employees to wear uniforms?" and 
"Where can I get a good price on a printer-fax-copier machine?" but I 
don't have the evidence.  So I'm looking for some business library 
studies -- any pointers?  I'll also take unpublished and anecdotal 
evidence ;-).

Thanks,

Avi
