Bld 42 - Library

The Gulf Ecology Division library is located in a Creole style cottage built in the early 1900s.

The building originally served as the physician's residence when the Pensacola Quarantine Station occupied the island from 1906 to 1925.

The facility was expanded in 1979 by enclosing a side porch and again in 1992 by adding a room to the back. Enclosed floor space now measures approximately 1,450 square feet.

The GED Library supports the research and administrative functions of the laboratory by providing a wide range of information services and by maintaining an extensive resource collection.

This collection comprises

10,000 volumes
340 journal titles
30,000 documents in paper copy and microform.
