Information Services
Information services contribute to the quality and productivity of affiliates' research, aid in the timely sharing of research among peers, and expose their work to a wider audience. The team offers reference assistance, including bibliographic searching; current awareness services; bibliographic instruction and information literacy workshops; translation and dissemination of affiliates' research through the CSDE website and other venues; manuscript submission to PubMed Central as required by the NIH Public Access Policy; and assistance with grant proposal and manuscript preparation. The CSDE library maintains physical and online collections of demographic resources.
