About Our Reference Service
When should I use this service?
Use the this service after you have checked the
Hawaii Rangelands and Rangelands
West web sites for answers to your question. Remember that
for questions on topics outside the scope of the Hawaii Rangelands web
site, your local library (public, college, and/or university) can
provide reference assistance. For assistance in other
agriculture-related topics, check the AgNIC Home Page.
Please note that many questions are most
appropriately answered by county extension agents and in all
likelihood, if you ask those kinds of questions here, you will be
referred to them directly. Please explore their services first since
they are well-versed in your local flora and fauna and are a great
resource for local problems.
Who can use this service?
Everyone is eligible to use this service.
What if the electronic reference form
doesn't work?
If the reference form doesn't work with your
browser, send your question by e-mail to agnic@hawaii.edu.
Who will answer my question?
Questions directed to this service are responded
to by the Hawaii Rangelands team
and other specialists at the University of Hawaii at Manoa.
What kind of answer will I get?
Every effort will be made to provide accurate
responses, and citations to sources consulted will be provided.
Questions that don't appear to have clear answers may be answered by
pointing you to the appropriate sources for your own examination or
reflected back to you for further clarification.
How long will it take to get a response
to my question?
Turn around time should be within 2 business
days for first-level difficulty questions. For more difficult
questions, within 2 business days you will be notified that the
question is being referred to a specialist and when to expect a
response from them.
Should I use this form to comment or
make a suggestion regarding the content or the structure and design of
the Rangeland Management web site?
No. We appreciate and look forward to feedback
on this site, so for that use Feedback.
