Abstract

The article reports that the Technical Library of the Tennessee Valley Authority's National Fertilizer and Environmental Research Center (NFERC) in Muscle Shoals, Alabama has recently expanded information services to its customer. Library resources have grown to accommodate the changing research activities at NFERC, and today its collection includes electronic and printed sources which focus on environmental stewardship, alternative technologies, site and materials remediation, and other key environmental issues. The library is internationally recognized for its extensive holdings on fertilizer development and technology. Workstations must have four megabytes of free RAM for CD network functions, 530K of free DOS memory is required once the user is up and running on the network. Online information services include Dialog, Numerica, EPIC, OCLC, National Library of Medicine, Washington Alert, and Wilsonline. Information service personnel have also experienced some difficulty in coaxing the CD packages to run in a multiuser environment.
