| dc.description.abstract | This dissertation studied the kind of information sources that are used by Church Leaders of Tanzania Assemblies of God Church in Dar es Salaam. The study was based on the popular information model by Hayden which illustrates the relationships between the concept of user needs and behaviour. This model is a combination of Wilson (1981) Figure of Interrelationships among areas in the field of user studies and Krikelas (1983) Model of Information seeking behaviour. This study asked the kind of information sources that church leaders need and whether these sources are effective and the problems that face in using the sources. Furthermore, the study investigated the kind of information that church leaders need. The study employed a method of data collection where data was collected through sample surveys using questionnaires that were distributed to 40 respondents. The questionnaires were self-administered and included both closed and open questions (see appendix). 30 questionnaires (75%) out of 40 were returned. The study found out that there are limited information sources specifically designed for church leaders and this affects even their information seeking behaviour. Findings show that church leaders use one or a combination of the following sources: Personal libraries and other ministers. | en_US |
