What's This About? This special event is brought to you by the ALA
Social Responsibilities Round Table Task Force on the Environment and
the United States Environmental Protection Agency Library Network.

Where and When: The open house is from 1:00 - 4:30 p.m., Monday,
July 8, at the U.S. EPA Region 2 Library on the 16th floor of the Federal
Building at 290 Broadway in lower Manhattan (two blocks north of
Chambers, between Duane and Reade).

A Fun and Interesting Afternoon... The afternoon's events include tours
of the year-old library, kibitzing with your colleagues and, at 2:30 p.m., a
staff demonstration of Internet-accessible environmental resources.
Refreshments, sponsored by Garcia Consulting, Inc., will be served in the
library. You can also take an elevator up to the 30th floor of the
one-year-old building to enjoy a breathtaking wraparound view of New
York.

And Well Worth The Trip! The Library is within easy walking distance
of many New York sights and scenes, including the World Trade Center,
City Hall, Chinatown, Soho, Battery Park, and Little Italy. 290
Broadway is just two blocks from City Hall, so in addition to seeing our
Library you will see a vibrant part of everyday New York.

The afternoon's speakers include Jonda Byrd, mgr., U.S. EPA Lib.
Network; Karen G. Schneider, Director, Region 2 Library; Vivian
Milczarski, Senior Reference Librarian.

(SRRT Task Force on the Environment Business Meeting to follow from
4:30-5:30 p.m.)
