Goals

The goal of this blog is to share insights and tips related to discovery of and access to science and technology information. The audience for these insights is science and technology librarians.

Science and technology librarianship spans many subject areas from engineering to natural sciences to environmental and health sciences but all posts will have science and technology as their common connection.

A resource or tool will be identified that is intended to help users with science and technology questions.  Resources vary from scholarly articles and white papers to data sets and computer code. Short tips and/or tricks will be presented to facilitate discovery and access.  Tips and/or tricks that are common in one person’s work may be new and helpful to another.

The science and technology librarian community will learn about tools to make their work easier and will have the opportunity to improve their skills. Both should lead to improved service to library users.

Participation from outside the committee is welcome.
