INFORMATION operations have evolved from traditional physical collections and lending institutions to virtual information centers that deliver intellectual information and research services over the web, virtually anywhere. From our first library contract in 1977, ZAI has navigated our customers through these evolutionary changes.

ZAI's professional librarians and highly-qualified IT staff stay abreast of technological developments and play a leading role in implementing innovative information technologies. The result -- enhanced library services, online information delivery systems and powerful search and data mining tools that create today's knowledge management centers.
