The next workshop will be scheduled for the summer of 2002, as it continues to fill a need for keeping up with changes in this complex and intriguing field. As part of Oregon State University's Information Services, the Guin Library houses a strong collection of marine-related information. The Guin Library staff provides excellent service to researchers, staff and students located at HMSC as well as those in Astoria at the Seafoods Lab and people on the main campus in Corvallis. Library users are also beginning to use more journals online as the library sets up electronic access to those titles offering free access. We are also evaluating electronic subscriptions to see when we should replace a print subscription with electronic access.
Times continue to change.
The Library staff is currently revising its strategic goals. Listed below, they give an excellent overview of the issues and challenges we face. Support the diverse faculty and students of OSU as they research and learn. Train people to use tools and resources. Teach people to evaluate and synthesize information.
