D. K. Lynch, R. W. Russell, and R. Ford, The Aerospace Corporation; H. B. Hammel, Space Science Institute (SSI); and M. L. Sitko, University of Cincinnati and SSI, report 3- to 14-micron spectroscopy of V4332 Sgr (cf. IAUC 5944, 5945) on Aug. 7.35 UT using BASS at the Infrared Telescope Facility. V4332 Sgr showed a moderate infrared excess between 10 and 13 microns. The excess was nearly flat in units of W cm**-2 microns**-1 vs. wavelength, with a slight increasing brightness trend toward longer wavelengths. Possible weak emission features were present at 11.1 and 12.7 microns. There was a quasi-continuum between 3 and 9 microns that was too narrow to be fitted by a black-body function. Derived magnitudes for V4332 Sgr were L = 6.7 ± 0.3, M = 5.7 ± 0.2, N [narrow, 10.3 microns] = 5.8 ± 0.5.
