ProQuest donates portable library

Ann Arbor-based ProQuest Co. donated a portable library to the city of New Orleans library system which lost its branch nine months ago in Hurricane Katrina.
The library, located in 14-by-56-foot educational trailer, had been stationed in Baton Rouge a few months after the devastating storm.

It has 13 computer terminals, including three designed for young children and several racks of books. Company officials did not disclose investment in the library, which was partially funded by IBM Corp.
