Abstract

In order to serve the growing needs of the business community while maintaining service to its primary clients, North Dakota State University Libraries began a fee‐based information service. In its first year and a half the North Dakota Information Service to the Community has developed a policy statement, successfully publicized itself, and overcome initial resistance from portions of the community. It is now well established and is operating on a cost‐recovery basis.
