What is the Information Cycle?
Knowing where to look for information on a topic is easier if you have some idea on how information is published before it becomes integrated into a subject.
Information is now available in a wide range of formats, not just in paper. For example, many books, journals and magazines, and newspapers are available in print, online via the internet, electronically by subscription or on microform.
The Information Cycle covers the creation, storage/distribution and end use of information. It has a formal structure and relationship between writers/authors, publishers and libraries.
