We present evidence for a 12 micron absorption band due to the librational mode of the H2O molecule in the form of ice in some IRAS LRS spectra. This identification is based on the 3 micron spectrophotometry of these objects showing the presence of the 3 micron ice band. From these spectra, physical characteristics of the ice can be discussed.
