Our Research Information Service is located at the Forest Research Station, Alice Holt Lodge. It provides a comprehensive scientific and technical information service for those interested in trees and forestry in Great Britain.
We provide a photocopy and loan service to:
- Forestry Commission staff
- Staff on secondment to the Forestry Commission
- Organisations that receive funding from the Forestry Commission
- Individuals with a Forestry Commission contract or undertaking research for the Forestry Commission.
We lend books to libraries through the British Library Inter-Library Loan Scheme and advise students to use their own College/University Library to obtain items, or the general public their Public Service Library.
There is a reciprocal arrangement with other Government departments or agencies for photocopies or loans.
We have the major collection of forestry and arboriculture publications for temperate regions. This collection can be consulted by appointment to study, read and photocopy, though we do charge for photocopies.
