Tapping into our collective knowledge about people and nature reveals possibilities for a more sustainable future. Much of this knowledge can be found in various forms in print and electronic media, and sourced through the library's database. IISD's Research Library specifically locates, organizes and provides access to knowledge about:
Sustainable development policy and its theoretical underpinnings
General works on the relationship between environment and development
Ecological and environmental economics
Poverty links to environment
Human development and well-being
Biodiversity and conservation
Ecosystem goods and services
International sustainable development negotiations, regimes and decision-making
Environmental governance and multilateral environmental agreements
Energy and climate change policy
Trade and foreign direct investment policy and links to sustainable development
Natural resources management and policy
Integrated assessment
Measurement and indicators of sustainable development
Environment and security
Sustainable agriculture
Watershed management and policy
SD-Cite, the library database, can be searched to find sustainable development information and knowledge kept in the library's print collection or on the World Wide Web.

Research Tools
Various tools have been developed to guide researchers to the information they are seeking. Some are more general such as the SD-Cite—the library database, our list of 125+ journals and links to other library databases. Other tools, however, are more specific and include subject bibliographies and gloassaries.
Services
The Research Library responds to information inquiries about sustainable development from IISD staff and the general public. Print materials can by borrowed by IISD staff and associates only, but many sources can be found on the Internet using SD-Cite. The library in Winnipeg is open to the public by appointment during the work week.
Weekly Journal Review
There is no other database that brings together the wide ranging mix of articles on sustainable development being published across many areas of inquiry. We do this by subscribing to journals with a sustainable development focus and listing new articles received each week in SD-Cite. This list is compiled and sent to thousands of subscribers each week.
Contacts
Research Library staff have several years experience and are knowledgeable about sustainable development. They respond to hundreds of inquiries each years and find and organize sustainable development information on an ongoing basis. As members of numerous networks, they can direct library users to subject experts and other organizations around the globe.
SD-Cite, the library database
Updated on a daily basis this database contains thousands of print and electronic sources of information on sustainable development. Sources in this fully searchable database are classified according to the OECD Macrothesaurus and descriptors.
Weekly Journal Review
New article titles and abstracts from 125+ sustainable development journals are listed and sent to subscribers every Friday. Subscribe now to receive the Weekly Journal Review or visit the list to see previous WJR messages.
