Educational Assistance Program (top)
In the broadest sense, "employee development" can be defined as activities and actions undertaken that allow, encourage, and support every employee with the desire to do so to fully explore his or her innate talents and capabilities, thus enabling each one to contribute to the success of the Laboratory in a unique way. Each of us must find ways to achieve our own personal growth--to maximize our possibilities. Without a doubt, one universally recognized key to personal growth is education--be it formal, classroom-based training or otherwise. The Educational Assistance Program provides for the reimbursement of funds spent for tuition, books, and laboratory fees for each successfully completed course in a qualified course of study in fields related to work at ORNL.

Since its inception in 1948, the ORNL Research Library has helped researchers compete for and carry out research of national importance. As a part of ORNL ommunications and Community Outreach Directorate, the Library continues to provide a dynamic place for researchers to congregate and share ideas. The Library is committed to innovation and continues to increase desktop access to library services through electronic journals, online databases, Web resource guides, and electronic request forms. The library staff provides specialized information services and maintains collections at five sites across the Oak Ridge reservation. Primary subject areas covered include nuclear technology, chemistry, physics, materials science, omputer science, mathematics, engineering, and the biological and environmental sciences.
The ORNL Library System consists of two libraries, serving the
employees of ORNL across the Oak Ridge reservation. The two
libraries, with their own areas of specialization, form an
interrelated system that enables researchers to have access
to a broad spectrum of scientific and technical information. A daily
courier service carries requested items between libraries to meet
library users' needs.
