Hey folks - What's with the List?

Weird to find one of my own messages time warped two months after I sent
it.

Was it lost in CyberSpace (Danger, Will Robinson, Danger!)?

Is this fixable?

Thanks,
Melissa Dicker

Hi all,

We're in the process of designing a user needs analysis for our
Corporate IP department. We've already conducted a literature search in
the information science databases on DIALOG looking for existing papers
on information use by attorneys (corporate, private, IP, other) and came
up empty.

Any one know of data/studies/resources in this area?

Thanks, as always, for your thoughts on this topic.

Cheers,
Melissa
