Especially DDC. Users Look at the DoD Information Transfer Process

Abstract

The Committee on Information Hang-ups examines DDC's services to information users and looks at some aspects of the information transfer process within the Department of Defense. While minor aspects of DDC's operations are criticized, users feel that no major changes are required, although greater efforts need to be made to educate users in what DDC offers. Serious obstacles to the information transfer process within DoD were identified. A substantial part of the difficulties found in transferring information arises because there is no coordination of the process among divisions of the Executive branch of the government. Users should take an active part in developing a climate of opinion favorable to establishing such coordination.
