The Government Research and Electronic Services team primarily serves the information needs of Oregon State Agency Employees.

The Reference Room, located on the second floor of the State Library, is open to anyone. Any Oregonian, with a current photo ID, may check out circulating materials by coming to the Reference Room or by asking their local library to request materials through interlibrary loan. The primary focus of the library collection is state and federal documents, government research, and Oregon history and genealogy.
