Directory of Selected Small Business Information Providers

Compiled by the staff of the Library of Congress Business Research Project in 1994 with updates by the
Business Reference Section (Science, Technology and Business Division) in 2001
in cooperation with the LC Bibliographic Enrichment Advisory Team (BEAT)

This directory is based on a small, nationwide sampling of nonprofit business information providers undertaken in 1994 by the Business Research Project (since disbanded) to identify peer-recommended low or no cost information services available to the small business community. Each of the sixty-six organizations originally selected by the Business Research Project has been contacted by the staff of the Business Reference Service in 2001, and asked to update its profile for this listing.

The directory provides contact information and brief descriptions of the programs of selected federal, state, and local government agencies and their affiliates, as well as think tanks and trade associations. To the original listings, we have also added contact information for the lead Small Business Development Center in each state.
