About Cyamus
Spanish version (en espanol)

The Cyamus regional group encompasses the West Coast of North America and Hawaii; including Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, California, Baja California, and Hawaii. Members represent academic, governmental and private institutions concerned with the marine and aquatic environments.

Annual Meetings
Annual meetings are held in the spring, giving members the opportunity to visit relevant libraries and as a forum to exchange ideas between the annual IAMSLIC conferences. Past meeting notes and annual reports to IAMSLIC are available in the archive.

The Spring 2008 Meeting was held March 26-29, 2008, at the Friday Harbor Laboratories of the University of Washington in Friday Harbor, Washington. Some photos are available on flickr.

The Spring 2009 Meeting will be held March 1-4, 2009, at the Asilomar Conference Center in Pacific Grove, California.

Other Activities
Many Cyamus libraries contribute to the Union List of Marine and Aquatic Serials which includes library holdings of selected participating libraries. A collection of links to Cyamus Member Library Catalogs and Finding Aids has also been gathered to facilitate resource sharing.

We welcome all interested members and non-members to join us. For more information about Cyamus activities contact:
