We present measurements of the cross-correlation of the triply-ionized carbon (CIV) forest with quasars using Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 14. The study exploits a large sample of new quasars from the first two years of observations by the Extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS). The CIV forest is a weaker tracer of large-scale structure than the Ly$\alpha$ forest, but benefits from being accessible at redshifts $z<2$ where the quasar number density from eBOSS is high. Our data sample consists of 287,651 CIV forest quasars in the redshift range $1.4Comment: 34 pages, 12 figures, matches the published version
