We are a member of OCLC. To borrow from us through OCLC, enter our symbol, FZT, once in the lender string. We also accept requests from other libraries via phone, Fax (301 497-5545), or mailed ALA request form.
Staff may initiate interlibrary loan requests by writing to pwrclibrary@usgs.gov. Provide your publication information via e-mail, phone, or by marking items in a bibliography.
Subject to special arrangements, the Library is open to visitors during normal working hours (contact pwrclibrary@usgs.gov). Call or e-mail us first so we can alert the gate guard and have a visitor's badge ready for you. Let us know your business affiliation, the make, model, year and tag number of your vehicle and the date you plan to come.
An advance appointment also assures you that staff will be available to assist you. It gives us a chance to discuss the type of topics you wish to pursue, and whether our holdings will be helpful. Materials may be used for reference, but may not be checked out. Interlibrary loan arrangements must be made to borrow books. Photocopying is permitted, and there is no charge for the use of the copier. Visitors are requested to bring their own paper if they anticipate copying more than 50 pages. Our bibliographic databases are also available to visitors.
