<strong>INSTAAR</strong> Information CenterA photo <strong>of</strong> the <strong>INSTAAR</strong>Information Center, taken for apaper Shelly Sommer gave in collaborationwith the NationalSnow and Ice Data Center Libraryat the Polar Libraries Colloquy,Rome, May 2<strong>00</strong>6. Photo: ShellySommer (<strong>INSTAAR</strong>).The Information Center is the specialized sciencelibrary <strong>of</strong> <strong>INSTAAR</strong>. It is a unique, focused collection<strong>of</strong> materials, information resources, and services that forwards<strong>INSTAAR</strong> research. Main subject areas include climaticchange, ecology, earth sciences, the Quaternary, andcold regions.The collection <strong>of</strong> print materials includes books, journals,reports, theses, and reprints <strong>of</strong> faculty publications. Acomputer in the Information Center provides access to anonline catalog <strong>of</strong> all materials in the collection, the bibliographicdatabase Arctic & Antarctic Regions, and the widerangingresources <strong>of</strong> the CU Boulder library system. TheInformation Center web site athttp://instaar.colorado.edu/other/info_center coordinatesavailable information sources, including journals held in theInformation Center, <strong>INSTAAR</strong> theses and other publications,electronic journals, bibliographic databases, dataclearinghouses, and web resources.Library services include help with research requests andsearching techniques; retrieval <strong>of</strong> information sources; andindividual and group instruction in effective online searching,catalog and database use, interlibrary loan, and othertopics.The Information Center room provides study areas and aplace for group discussions and meetings.Shelly Sommer manages the Information Center, assistedby Jenifer Hall-Bowman.Librarian Shelly Sommer, updating the Information Center webpage.
