Two Regional Storage Facilities (RLFs), north and south, located near Berkeley andin Los Angeles, have provided storage space for older and lesser-used materials for about threedecades. For a conceptual description of the roles of the RLFs, see Schottlaender1. Recentpolicy changes have led to them being managed as persistent shared collections. This changeguarantees that

My own personal experience has shown that with mybackground in biology, I can easily help scientists with library related queries, as I amfamiliar with the terminology. In my first library job, I worked at a medical library in which Iwas required to take a short course in medical terminology to better help the patrons withtheir queries.
