Again, I feel we should either provide the information
requested, personal insight, key words that might be used at
a library with the ability to research in that fashion, but
never just drop a request cold.
As noted above, many request may come from those with a true
interest but haven't the ability due to lack of information
at the library. You can help without giving the individual
an all out term paper.
Think of it this way, you have the information, you have
years of knowledge to go along with the information, your
learning can be passed to others in a combination of the
two. Lokk at what value you have passed on. I like the
keyword idea, if the library has the abiltiy to reference in
this fashion it would be great. I recommend to also list
any really good text which might add insurance that the
individual will do their own research on top of what you've
provided.
If your too busy, don't reply.
My thoughts on the subject......
