| dc.description.abstract | This study aims at developing a suitable model for support by
public libraries in the development of small-scale business
enterprises (SBEs) in Meru County, Kenya. A mixed-methods
research approach and survey research design were applied.
We collected data from small-scale business traders, staff members
from the three public libraries, and two staff members in
charge of the Enterprise Development Department in Meru
County by means of questionnaires and interviews, and
applied document analysis on written sources held by these
entities. We developed a model that can be adopted and is
highly recommended to public libraries in supporting small
enterprises in Kenya. | en_US |
