Permian Basin Directory of Library Resources

2014PERMIAN BASIN DIRECTORY OF LIBRARY RESOURCES
Permian Basin Directory of Library Resources 
About this directory:
Permian Basin libraries provide a myriad of valuable services to their patrons, enriching
the communities they serve. Expanding awareness of what these libraries have to offer is
the goal of the Permian Basin Directory of Library Resources.
In this directory, librarians will find basic information such as location, telephone
numbers, and staff contacts. Included are collection size, circulation and computer use
policies, and journals/indexes availability. Also of benefit are sections that note special
collections and areas of added interest – features that make each library unique.
The Permian Basin Directory of Library Resources is produced and distributed by the
Murry H. Fly Learning Resources Center at Odessa College. Questions, comments, and
suggestions are always welcome. Please direct corrections to Odessa College LRC staff.
