The EPA Begins to Close its Scientific Libraries (November 20, 2006)


The Boston Globe reported that the The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had begun closing its nationwide network of scientific libraries, effectively preventing EPA scientists and the public from accessing vast amounts of data and information on issues from toxicology to pollution. Several libraries were already dismantled, with their contents either destroyed or shipped to repositories where they were uncataloged and inaccessible.
