Institute of Ocean Sciences, Sidney, BC, Canada – New Librarian
Pamela Wilkins is the new librarian at the Institute of Ocean Sciences, Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO). Pam took charge of the IOS library in September and will be joining IAMSLIC soon. She received her MLIS from the University of British Columbia and came to Fisheries and Oceans Canada from the British Columbia Ministry of Forests and Range library.
The previous librarian, Pamela Olson, who operated the IOS library since 1997, retired after a 25 year career with Fisheries and Oceans Canada. Pam O. had the opportunity to work in all three DFO Pacific Region libraries, beginning with Regional Headquarters in Vancouver, moving on to Pacific Biological Station in Nanaimo, then to IOS in Sidney. The Institute of Ocean Sciences library hosted the IAMSLIC 2000 conference held in Victoria, BC.
