Abstract:

The OLS is a computerized list of bibliographic citations compiled by the EPA library network. The OLS includes several related databases that can be used to locate books, reports, articles, and information on a variety of topics. Material includes: National Catalog; Hazardous Waste; ACCESS EPA; Environmental Financing Information Network (EFIN); and files from regional libraries. The material on OLS is updated every two weeks, and may be searched in many ways, such as by title, author, and keyword.

          The National Catalog, which is the most popular database on OLS, contains the holdings (lists of books, documents and magazine titles) for most of the 28 EPA regional libraries and laboratories. The National Catalog also has holdings for the EPA documents in NTIS, the National Technical Information Service (whether or not they are held by any libraries).

          How To Access The Data

          Users can log in to OLS through a telnet client, using the address epaibm.rtpnc.epa.gov. Users can also access OLS from the World Wide Web using a standard web browser (if the WWW browser has been preconfigured to support a telnet application directly from the browser).
