Geographic user interfaces has been created to bibliographic information on environmental conditions of the Baltic Sea in a project, BALTICSEAWEB, within the Libraries sector of the EU Telematics Applications Programme. Two versions of map-based search interfaces have been developed which allow searches made in a database of more than 11 000 bibliographic records. The searches can be modified by using a WWW based search form. In addition a number of original documents have been made available in electronic form so that the user can not only retrieve bibliographic records but also original documents. BALTICSEAWEB offers environmental information on the Baltic Sea through a user-friendly and well structured geographical interface.
