Writing A Business Plan:
Marketing Research for Australia Is As Close As Your Phone

Marketing research for Australia has taken a whole new 21st century turn.  While it may be comfortable to think of Aussies as "down under folk", in truth there's hardly a country in the world so modern. That is certainly true of their research services.

Conducting marketing research for Australia has taken on a whole new dimension. The country has opened up its borders with Australian Libraries Online .

Need to know the number of emu herds? The acres of open land in any given area? The number of manufacturing concerns in Sydney? Go to Australian Libraries Online and ASK THE LIBRARIAN.

This site has included the very popular "Ask the Librarian" button. This is already used extensively throughout the U.S. and Canada, and I suspect other parts of the world. I am glad that Australia opted to use it.

As a professional librarian myself, I'm a little snobbish on the topic. But there just ain't nuthin' like asking someone who knows. Finding answers to questions is their job, their passion. Your phone call (or email) sends them on a search through volumes and stacks of resources most people can hardly imagine. And if they can't find the answer, they ask and ask until someone can find the answer.

National Library of Australia enables anyone with an Internet connection to select from more than 40 million items held in over 800 libraries across the nation, with books, journals, newspapers, theses, pictures, music, manuscripts, maps and much more. Many online resources such as digitized imaged and full text government publications can be accessed immediately online.

Yee haw. It's always great news when a treasure trove of information hits the world forum.
