Identifies some of the factors that hinder information use in Kenya as the prevalence of inappropriate information systems, an unstimulating education system, high levels of illiteracy and the language barrier. Makes various recommendations for the stimulation of information use in the country, including paying more attention to the information needs of the user community and the communication process among each group of the user community. Offers information experts in the country a challenge to conduct qualitative user studies research which would lead to the design of improved information systems.
