Abstract

The principal current concern of corporate information centers is the support and management of end-user computing. This paper presents a normative model of an information center in terms of the end-user computing environment, discusses the results of extensive field interviews with information center managers, staff, and end-users, and draws conclusions and generalizations that are relevant for both future research and information center management.
