Abstract
The information explosion and the wide-ranging interests of operational research workers cause severe problems in the finding of information relevant to their studies. This paper attempts to show how an operational research worker can set about finding information for himself on any aspect of his work and a hundred examples of sources of information likely to be useful are briefly described with special reference to the needs of British workers.
