There being no convenient facility

beverages such as coffee, tea, green tea or milo
together with creamer, sugar, etc., are available
from $0.50 to $1.00 depending on your needs at the

Fumigation Services
The
ISEAS Library offers state of the art
fumigation service at minimal cost to libraries, institutions and
individuals in Singapore.
The
fumigation chamber is automated. It uses nitrogen gas to
suffocate insects in all stages of their development and
kill fungus as well. There is no chemical residue on the surface
of the materials after fumigation, hence it is
environmentally safe for both human and material.
