    INDEXING OF PUBLICATIONS
    (Ozean Journal of Social Sciences, 2010) O.A. Fadehan
    The paper attempted a pedagogical presentation of the art of indexing of publications using legal practitioners and law academics as the major audience. It further acknowledges the art of indexing as a prerogative of library and information professionals but uses this instance as a "do it yourself medium" for legal practitioners and law academics. The paper took cognizance of the general principles of indexing and consummated this by highlighting the special idiosyncracies of legal publications and legal indexing. The paper serves as a library instruction and reference service tool for legal practitioners and legal academics.

    Information Source Accessibility and Usage as Determinants of Business Performance of Community Banks in Osun State, Nigeria.
    (Ghana Journal of Development Studies, 2010) O.A. Fadehan
    The paper discusses an investigation on the relationship between information source accessibility and business performance of the community banks over a six-year period. The Expost-Facto Survey design was used in collecting data from 258 managers of 43 functioning community banks at the time of study with a retrieval rate of 80%. The data were analyzed using both the descriptive and inferential statistics. Results revealed that the customer source was the most used of all the information sources. The personal sources were also preferred to the impersonal sources while information accessibility had a positive relationship with the banks’ business performance. The study therefore recommended the creation of greater awareness of information relevance and sourcing using formalized information packaging and managing systems.
