Other Events

The Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) web site is extensive and deep, comprised of more than 300 distinct areas and over two million pages of html text and PDF files. It contains a vast amount of environmental information and serves many audiences, ranging from elementary school kids to the general public to Ph.D. environmental researchers. The size, extension, and technical nature of much material on the EPA web site combine to daunt or confuse many users about the overall content and structure. EPA’s Office of Environmental Information (OEI) has developed hands-on training sessions conducted with small groups of librarians. In the training sessions, EPA shares tips and methods about how to navigate http://www.epa.gov.

Target Audience: Library reference staff interested in learning more about the environmental resources available through the EPA web site.
