BIOLOGICAL LABORATORIES COMMUNICATION

Abstract

The status of scientific communications was evaluated at the U. S. army Biological Laboratories through a questionnaire. Two hundred twenty-five responses provided the source information. Evidence indicates a hazy understanding of good communications, a lack of familiarity with the means of good communications, and a lack of recognition of the close interrelationships among information, management, and operations. Generally speaking, participants recognized these characteristics but questioned their own involvement in an information system rather than in their individual interests (operations). The implied placement of responsibility was on information personnel. Several suggestions are made in regard to the future course of Biological Laboratories' information systems.
