                                       TO
                                   FORM 12b-25
                                       FOR
                              IVI PUBLISHING, INC.


         The  Company is not in a position to file its Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended  June 30,  1997 on a  timely  basis,  and even  with  unusual  effort  and
substantial  expense,  the  Company  would not be in a position to file its Form
10-Q on a timely basis and fulfill its  disclosure  obligations  satisfactorily.
There are several issues involving material non-public  information  relating to
the Company which are currently in flux,  but which should in the next couple of
days evolve to the point where disclosure can be meaningful. If not, the Company
will deal with the issues as best it can under the circumstances.
