Office Copies

Do you need a book, journal subscription, map or other research publication to be kept in your office? The Library provides purchasing services for office copies, including search services for out-of-print books. Your program number and an authorized signature must accompany purchase requests. When you place an order by e-mail, you or an appropriate co-worker who has signature authority should forward them to us. Send this information to Mary Chavez (ext. 1184, maryc@ucar.edu) for journal subscriptions and Judy Dayhoff (ext. 1175, dayhoff@ucar.edu) for other types of publications.

Recommendations for the Library Collection

Have you recently noticed publications which would be useful additions to the NCAR Library? If so, please contact Judy Dayhoff (ext. 1175, dayhoff@ucar.edu). Recommendations might be books, journals, maps, reports, online publications, videos or other appropriate formats. We collect all pertinent scientific subjects, professional development publications, foreign language courses, and more. We welcome your personal recommendations for items having a high likelihood of use in UCAR endeavors. An incomplete reference is okay; we'll do the research to assure we don't already have the items you suggest.

Book Selection Committees

Do you want to serve as a regular selector of NCAR Library materials? By being a book selection committee member, you'll occasionally receive descriptions of new publications in a given subject area. Select from these items when received, or send your personal recommendations to the library instead. Click here to view the guidelines for selecting materials. Please contact Judy Dayhoff (ext. 1175, dayhoff@ucar.edu) to become involved.
