6 Using the Engineering Literature, Second Edition
In addition to the case studies with an actual dollar amount, there are a number of studies that
indicate that access to information can save lives, time, equipment, and improve safety (Osif, 2004).
One nal way to look at the value of information is that anything that can save engineers time in
doing their jobs, help avoid expensive or wasteful dead ends, save equipment, and improve safety
and efciency has real value. This translates into better work, better evaluation, and, most likely,
better pay. The many ways to indicate the value of information cannot be overlooked and is a useful
tool to market the value of libraries and library resources.
