This book, first published in 1990, illustrates the nature and use
of sci-tech information in relation to the environment. Sci-tech
librarians, government researchers, and compilers and editors of
noted indexing/abstracting services describe the efforts of their
organizations to compile, maintain, and disseminate the large body
of sci-tech information devoted to environmental concerns. It
includes informative chapters on: a description of the
Environmental Protection Agency's network of 25 libraries
throughout the country, including details of the services offered
by the network and the collections of the ten regional libraries
and 15 specialized or scientific libraries; a review of the growth
of the non-profit, non-advocacy Center for Environmental
Information, Inc., with a look at its library and its programs such
as the Acid Rain Information Clearinghouse; an examination of the
American Chemical Society's journals, books, newsletters, meeting
abstracts, and other publications devoted to environmental matters;
a look at the Adirondack Research Center and its contributions to
furthering the efforts of researchers who study conservation topics
as they relate to this important area; and an acknowledgement of
the important role played by commercial bibliographies and
databases in the quest to rapidly disseminate new information on
environmental issues.
