BRD science libraries are located at many of the BRD science centers. Holdings and services at each library tend to reflect the center's research specialties as well as the realization that high-quality science and biological resource management depend upon reliable access to a wide variety of information.

In that spirit, and in concert with the goals of the National Biological Information Infrastructure (NBII), BRD libraries recently initiated a Library Automation Plan. The plan focuses on the development of automation systems, such as library catalogs, which will become available over the Internet. These automation systems will also eventually give library patrons access to an even broader range of information resources, such as images, full-text documents, and metadata.
