Under LOT 2 document suppliers locate, retrieve and deliver copies of published and unpublished materials in response to customers' requests for specific items; materials may be supplied in print or electronic form. Vendors who qualify under LOT 1 and/or LOT 2 may also provide their associated publications in print, microform or other non-computerized formats as described in LOT 3 - Vendor Associated Publications; and/or tailored electronic packages for individual customers as described in LOT 4 - Specialized Access.
