Libraries with Climate related information

The UC Berkeley Library's climate and atmospheric science collections are primarily located in the following campus locations:

  • The Earth Sciences & Map Library has collections in climatology which include print and online books and journals on global climate change, atmospheric science, and meteorology. In addition, the library acquires climate atlases, maps, and data.
  • The Doe Library contains printed statistical climate data produced by various federal and foreign agencies.  Reference librarians in Doe Library (floor 2), will provide assistance on finding specific information.
  • The Bioscience and Natural Resources Library collects information on bioclimatology, the effects of climate on agriculture and ecosystems, and climate change adaptation. Climate data for California (in relation to crops, soil and forestry) are of special importance.
  • The Environmental Design Library has an extensive collection of books and periodicals related to the climatic impact of the built environment (architecture and landscape architecture). City and regional planning material includes extensive information on urban sustainability, including local and state climate action plans.
