Librarian: Kathy Maxson
The William S. Richardson Library at Nova Southeastern University’s
Oceanographic Center is a research-oriented library for all the disciplines
of marine and aquatic science. Located at the entrance of Port Everglades ,
it is open to the public for browsing, but its primary use is for faculty
research, and for Masters students in Marine Biology, Coastal Zone Management
and/or Marine Environmental Science, and Ph.D. students in Oceanography.
The library has 83 current subscriptions to journals and over 3000 books and monographs which can be found in the On-line Catalog. Databases include ASFA (Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts), and Science Direct (full-text Elsevier Journals) which can be accessed through NSU's Electronic Resources. Many titles held by this library can be accessed full-text online through EBSCO by clicking here.
