PRESENT INFORMATION SEEKING BEHAVIOURS AMONG WEAVERS
This is the information age. Every one should be at the centre of every management
information system. We are seeing Information Technology Revolution. Revolution means
bringing complete change. Some of the IT products are put into use with basic theme of
providing right information to right people at the right time.
Information Age is a name given to a period after the industrial age and before the
Knowledge Economy. Information Age is a term applied to the period where information
rapidly propagated, more narrowly applying to the 1980s onward. Under conventional economic
theory, the Information Age also heralded the era where information was a scarce resource and
its capture and distribution generated competitive advantage when information ceased being
scarce, the Knowledge Economy commenced. The Knowledge Economy started around 1992
and continued to approximately 2002.
The Information Technology can have a transformation role in many enterprises. Small
Scale Industries are relying more on IT to accomplish their working strategies. Elimination of
information gap, reduction of transaction cost, Value Added Services, early realization of new
opportunities et., are some of the major current issues in this field.
Now executives are computer literate but many are not information literates. They know
to get data. But they have to learn to use data. A better-informed person leads the rest.
Similarly a well-informed organization can position itself formidably among competitors. A
separate management information system is established in every organization. So every one
should be at the centre of every management information system.
The Information Technology in India has grown by leaps and bounds. IT is going to
bring a dramatic change in the field of small-scale industry in this fast changing new era.
In this modern, ever-changing world, weavers should be also be informed in all aspects
that are in and around them.
