Information Ecology (Overall view of communities happenings)
Gaps In:a) Access to Civic Information
- “Most useful info” hidden away.
b) Relevance of Life Enhancing Needs - Columbia information heavily segmented
towards some groups and away from others.
- Uneven distribution and availability.- Established, and/or possibly uninformed
view of information landscape.

Many people know CRC for its research, but we do a lot more. We also offer community outreach programs to educate church groups, civic clubs and other organizations about our research and cancer prevention. In 1988 CRC purchased a six-acre tract of land just north of the Columbia Regional Hospital on Berrywood Drive. An additional 2500 square feet of laboratory space was added to the south wing of the building in July, 1988.

Our food bank is one of few food banks nationwide that does not charge for the food it provides. Our food goes to soup kitchens, emergency food pantries, shelters for the abused and homeless, programs for low income children and senior citizens, and rehabilitation centers.
Gaps in Non-profit communication
No clear way for people to get involved.
Most of the non-profits have websites for their orgs, but not a lot else. Within this many non-profits do not have well
developed websites making it harder for the public to take advantage.

There is not a lot of information available about city government

GapsFor the most part, internet is usually free, but
those who do not have access must pay for their information when it comes to newspapers.
Television: For younger generations, internet is key to obtaining news/information that can be accessed at anytime, where as news stations on television is only on at specific times and may take longer to access. At any age, you have to map your time out to receive your news on T.V.
GapsRadio: On a broader level, to find out listings on
what radio stations are available in Columbia, internet is key. If one does not have access, then you are left flipping through the stations to find one you are looking for.
On a micro level, radio stations pick out information they find to be critical and may not be as informative as news stations, internet and so forth.
