Library
Organizing scientific knowledge to make it accessible to everyone is a complex task that requires professionals with extensive training and broad knowledge.
The Library Service of the Institute of Marine Research is the team responsible for these tasks. The service operates as a public-access library with a broad catalog of publications, both in print and digital format, which are easily accessible through its digital catalog.
You can also access the CSIC open repository (Digital.CSIC), a source of open-access publications for anyone outside the center.
The Institute’s collection covers several titles focused on the IIM’s research interests, such as Oceanography, Fisheries, Aquaculture, Marine Ecology or Chemistry and Technology of Seafood Products, as well as images and titles that serve as an archive of the IIM’s historical and scientific past.
In addition to preserving the collection, the Library and Documentation Service staff ensure access to the information and documentation needed to carry out studies, teaching, research and knowledge of the various scientific disciplines related to the field of marine research.
They also support research and technical staff when updating their publications and scientific profiles in various databases, both internal (ConCiencia, Digital.CSIC, etc.) and external (WoS, Scopus, etc.), and facilitate access to programs that promote open access to information, following the Institutional Open Access Mandate and thanks to the support of the CSIC Open Access Publishing Support Program.
If you are part of the IIM-CSIC staff, consult the full catalog of services on the IIM Intranet.
