Business Information Centres

Meath Business Information Centres -

A joint initiative of the Economic Development and Innovation Unit and the The Library Service, Meath County Council

The Meath Business Information Centres offer a free resource to those interested in starting up their own business or to assist small businesses in particular areas.  A large collection of relevant business related titles are now available at Navan and Ashbourne Libraries but can also be reserved at any of the public libraries in Meath or online at www.meath.ie/library 

The titles available in the collection cover a range of topics including business planning, PR & Marketing, HR, entrepreneurship, green business, accounting and health & safety.  The collection will also feature titles that will assist those seeking employment, e.g. interview skills.

In addition to the book collection, the Economic Development and Innovation Unit has sourced a wide range of information from local & national agencies, whose role it is to provide assistance and advice to individuals and to small businesses.
