EPA Headquarters Chem Lib Closing

Posted on GOVDOC-L:

EPA continues to put its libraries out of business but now tries to conceal the fact. EPA did not announce the closure of this library. I got this information about the latest closure from someone at another agency.

The Headquarters Office of Prevention, Pesticides, and Toxic Substances Chemical Library is being shut down and the word is that the collection will be gotten rid of. This includes the laying off of three librarians and two technical staff as of next Wednesday.

I am not sure but I think the only headquarters libraries left are the Office of General Counsel Law Library and the Legislative Reference Library. There is a collection of publications at headquarters considered a respository not available to the public.
