Now housed at SAIAB, the library continues to be a valuable national and international resource for the study of both marine and freshwater fishes, fisheries, and aquaculture. There is a strong focus on Africa.

As a shared resource with Rhodes University,  our main users are the current  Department of Ichthyology and Fisheries Science, as well as students from other science departments at  Rhodes University. We are also open to visitors worldwide from similar university departments and ichthyology and fisheries institutes.
