U.S. National Forest Service Library …find it here! Carol Ayer National Program Manager Special Libraries Association 2007 Annual Conference June 4, 2007 Denver, CO

History Forest Service libraries were run by Research Stations and paid for locally by a mixture of Research and other Forest Service money. Over time Research Stations closed libraries because of funding issues. Many areas received no library service. This was raised as a national issue and after many long years it was agreed to make the libraries a national program.

Vision To provide service to the entire Forest Service by combining and expanding resources from remaining Forest Service libraries into one cohesive national structure.

A new day October 2006 the Forest Service libraries became the National Forest Service Library. Changes include: –Funding from a national account –Our own program area with a single program manager –A library Board of Directors –Service to all Forest Service employees

Achievements National web page with access to library services Expanded Monthly Alert service National subscriptions to electronic journals Expanded table-of-contents service Expanded access to reference and database services

Future developments Additional national electronic subscriptions Additional databases Broader subject coverage in library collections & systematic collection development Interactive services when our computer systems are upgraded to allow them. Continued emphasis on marketing to customers and agency leadership.

A new day We are happy with the reorganization. We are still working out some glitches like not being able to hire additional people in time for the additional workload. Some of this is being resolved. Our customers are happy to have more access (or, in many cases, access) to library services.

What next? Continue to report our successes to the Library Board and national leadership team. Continue to implement new and innovative services. Continue to keep customer service as our our number one priority. We are proud to be the: National Forest Service Library …find it here!
