Abstract
The amount of information available to business people interested in global marketing opportunities is overwhelming. The United States government publishes a vast amount of information, a great deal of which is available electronically on the Internet and CD-ROMs. This paper evaluates the usefulness of four of the government's most important electronic sources of global marketing information. It will serve to guide students as future marketers and faculty members as to what is the most appropriate and likely source according to their specific information needs. The paper also describes a workshop using these sources which can be incorporated into a marketing course.
