The Education Resource Center, located at the Coastal Institute Visitor Center, is managed by the Office of Marine Programs and serves as a reference library for accessing a variety of educational materials. Educators can preview CD-ROMS, videos, professional journals, books, magazines, and classroom curriculum materials. As a reference library, materials may not be removed from the collection. However materials may be photocopied for the educational cost of 10 cents per page. Weekday access to the Education Resource Center is made by appointment only. Call 401-874-6211 to make arrangements.
