First InfoFair Brochure
The first InfoFair was organized by Nina Dougherty in
response to an increasing number of inquiries from library users on how
to search MEDLINE from their own home or office microcomputers, as well
as inquiries from database vendors interested in setting up demonstrations
and training sessions for end-users. Nina initially envisioned InfoFair
as an arena for vendors and end-users to get together, exchange information,
and become more aware of each others' needs.
