SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA will 

re-establish on-site libraries for 

members of the public and EPA staff in 

Region 5, Chicago; Region 6, Dallas; 

Region 7, Kansas City; and at the EPA 

Headquarters and Chemical Libraries in 

Washington, DC on September 30, 2008. 

The Region 5 Library in Chicago will 

open on September 30, 2008, and will 

be staffed by a professional librarian 

who is able to provide library services 

to EPA employees and the public. The 

physical library space will be equipped 

with computers and temporary 

furniture. The core reference collection 

and the first installment of Great Lakes 

literature collection will also be in 

place. It is anticipated that additional 

Great Lakes literature, permanent 

furniture and shelving will arrive in the 

next several weeks. Shortly thereafter, 

Region 5 will host an opening 

ceremony. 

EPA will also enhance services at its 

existing Region 3 satellite library at Fort 

Meade, MD, through the addition of onsite professional library staff effective 

September 30, 2008. 

These libraries are part of EPA’s 

National Library Network, which 

consists of regional, laboratory, and 

specialized libraries. The libraries will 

provide physical space for walk-in 

traffic and will establish and maintain 

an on-site collection of materials 

developed and tailored to meet local/ 

regional needs. All libraries will be 

staffed by a professional librarian to 

provide services to the public and EPA 

staff via phone, e-mail, or in person. The 

libraries will provide access for a 

minimum of 24 hours over four days per 

week on a walk-in basis or by 

appointment. All libraries will provide 

core information services of reference/ 

research assistance and interlibrary 

loan/document delivery. 

EPA’s core library services and local 

collections are supported and 

supplemented by additional services 

and electronic resources. Public access 

to EPA’s valuable document collections 

continues to be an essential function of 

the libraries. Thousands of EPA 

documents and reports can be accessed 

in full-text electronic format through the 

National Environmental Publications 

Internet Site (NEPIS) at http:// 

www.epa.gov/nscep. Members of the 

public can also search for EPA 

documents in the libraries’ online 

catalog at http://www.epa.gov/libraries/ 

ols.htm. EPA libraries actively 

participate in interlibrary loan services 

to provide the public with access to EPA 

library materials upon request. 

Additional information about library 

locations, hours of operations, and 

available services can be found at 

http://www.epa.gov/libraries. 

Comprehensive environmental 

information is available via the EPA 

Web site at http://www.epa.gov.
