Engineering Librarians - ACCESS group

• The ACCESS Groups in Australia

ACCESS (Architects Construction and Consulting Engineers Specialist Services) was founded in 1971 as a liaison group of special libraries servicing the information needs of architects, planners, constructional engineers and related professions, including the Stanton Library, North Sydney.

• The ACCESS Queensland Group

The inaugural ACCESS Queensland Group meeting was held on Wednesday 25th November 1987 at the Local Government Department Library.
The first 1988 Committee was: President, Carolyn Manifold (Winders, Barlow & Morrison); Secretary/Treasurer, Heather Todd (QIT); Publication Officers, Marion Hayes (Cameron McNamara), Jennifer McKenna (GHD) and Felicity Windzor (McWilliams).

The 2004 Committee is:

• President, Rose Dryden @Cement Australia, Rose.Dryden@cemaust.com.au

• Secretary/Treasurer, Jocelyne Poirier @QUT, j.poirier@qut.edu.au

Regular bimonthly lunchtime meetings are held at the members' institutions, on a voluntary basis.
The Annual ACCESS Queensland Group Meeting is scheduled on the Christmas lunchtime meeting to elect the new office bearers.
The group hopes to facilitate:

• Cooperation between member libraries;

• Share information and resources;

• Entrance library resources to the member community;

• Offer practical help and encouragement to librarians working in isolated or unfamiliar subject areas.
