Abstract

In an effort to provide library services to more clients, the information consultants (IC) in the Amgen Libraries have taken the library to clients directly. The information consultants make rotating visits to various sites on campus bringing as many library services as can be arranged for each site. Starting with a three-month pilot program, the Visiting IC Program has developed into an important tool that can be used by the information consultants to expand library services, increase library visibility, and most importantly, to provide new and convenient outreach library services and information to those who need it.
