History of The NYS SBDC

The NYSSBDC Central Office created a Central Library in 1991 to provide reference service to SBDC personnel and manage reference materials. In 1993 the program hired several information researchers to perform business research and respond to an average of 7,000 information requests annually for SBDCs across the U.S. In 2001, the newest Regional Center at LaGuardia Community College SBDC was established as part of the program’s response to the World Trade Center attacks.
