Synopsis
Excerpt from Agricultural Libraries Information Notes, Vol. 1: June/July 1975
Our heaviest users are associated with the School of Renewable Natural Resources, which includes nine departments, such as range management, forestry, wild life, and watershed management. Chemical Engineering and Microbiology are using c_ain on a joint project involving the acid hydrolysis of wood wastes to pro duce sugar, which is used in turn to feed yeast which produce a high protein feed (or food). Arid Lands Studies use cain to supplement their own data bases supplied to them free of charge by the nasa-recon system. We get numerous requests to search cain for wildlife and ecology information relative to arid grass lands, deserts, or ponderosa pine forests. The U. Of A. Is a center for arid zone agriculture and we attract many students from the Middle East.
We have been charging the cain bibliographies out to the users like books, giving them ample time to get articles through interlibrary loan. We ask them to fill out a detailed questionnaire and to list up to five citations found in other sources. This gives us guidance in deciding what is a relevant bibliographic source. We hope to generate enough support to make cain a permanent part of our services. Even if we cannot secure university or departmental funds, we may continue cain on a fee basis. So far we have done 105 searches for 76 users, some of which are broad enough to be used by all members of a research group.
Below is a list of subjects that were requested more than once. Many are in agriculture's mainstream.
