It can be very challenging to locate information about individual ISU Extension publications via the library website. Quick Search will list the name of the series, but it will not list individual publications within each series. The Parks Library Reference Collection has a List of Current Series, Serial Publications (Series Publications of Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service), published as of March 2004. It lists each publication from 1888-2004 (by title and publication number - and in some cases it will show an author name).

Abstract
The demand for water for all uses in Iowa is increasing about 5 percent each year. This increasing demand means that water is becoming scarce. As water becomes scarce, it becomes valuable, and users of water seek to obtain rights to use it. Uses and users of water compete for available supplies which are not sufficient for all. This situation leads to the necessity of establishing rules for allocating water among competing uses and users.
