InfoQuest Update
Submitted by Nancy Noe
From the Millennium Dome to the Wild West, from Israeli agriculture
to Russian etiquette, from Mozart to the classification of Monkeys, Auburn
University Library's InfoQuest office continues to meet the informational
and research needs of customers outside the University community.
InfoQuest, a non-profit fee based cost recovery delivery service, provides
research and reference assistance worldwide. Clients include members of
business and industry, health care professionals, lawyers, scholars, alumni
and the general public. InfoQuest provides photocopies of journal articles,
newspaper articles, book chapters, Auburn theses, archival materials, and
government publications. Book loans are also offered.
