Rovinj/Kroatien
Marine sciences
The Center also maintains a library specializing in marine sciences. It has a collection of approximately 15000 volumes and receives about 300 serial publications from all over the world. The library is especially rich in original old expedition reports. Until recently, the Center was also engaged in issuing the journal 'Thalassia Jugoslavica' which contributed articles in all fields of oceanology. Regrettably, due to the war, and political changes, the issue of the journal has been interrupted, and ended with volume No. 23 in 1991.

The Center in Rovinj is traditionally involved in the training of graduate and postgraduate fellows. About 600 students per year attend short courses, primarily in the field of marine biology. In addition, the show aquarium contributes also to the dissemination of marine sciences.
