The results of surveys of US and Canadian veterinary medical libraries and information brokers used by animal health professions provide data on usage and services offered. The services most frequently used by animal health professionals were photocopying and computer searching. Tables illustrate data obtained in the usage of these services. Insufficient data received from information brokers voided that part of the study. Unique services provided by CONSULTANT, Swine Information Library Service, First Move are described. Library Service activities used by animal health professionals at the NAL, NLM, AVMA, and the PR Committee of the Veterinary Medical Libraries Section of the Medical Library Association are described.
