Welcome to the Nutrition Information and Resource Center!

 

NIRC offers information about food science and nutrition. You can send us email to request information and answers to your food and nutrition questions. You can also use our question and answer form.

This website has online fact sheets and other publications. It also has links to many other nutrition websites, making us a great place to begin searching for information on any nutrition-related topic.

NIRC has a library of food and nutrition materials consisting of books, journals, and audiovisuals covering a broad range of topics from children's literature to technical nutrition information.

Due to funding, effective October 1, 2004, Penn State Nutrition Information & Resource Center (NIRC) materials are available for loan to:

  • Penn State Cooperative Extension faculty and staff,
  • Pennsylvania Nutrition Education Projects (PA NEP), and
  • Cooperative Extension faculty and staff across the United States.

No international lending is available.

How are we doing? Please provide us with feedback about the services provided by NIRC.
