Did a bit of google searching for information on the event...The only article I have been able to find on the event is in a magazine which I don't have access to.
Does anyone have any good sources on what is known about the event?

Re: Eocene-Oligocene extinction event
How technical do you want to go? This Jstor search turned up a number of papers touching on various aspects of it when I searched for "Eocene", "Oligocene", and "Extinction" in the paper abstracts.

Re: Eocene-Oligocene extinction event
Wanted to add that I know someone who might have access.....Works in a University in the Geology Department. If you could suggest a few articles, I might be able to request them.
I realize that the papers might be quite technical...Problem that I think my choices are completely non-technical or highly technical probably little middle ground.

Re: Eocene-Oligocene extinction event
Here's a good one. The event is known as the "Grande Coupure" and you'll get more results if you search for that.
どうして？お前が夜に自身お触れるから。
Long ago in a distant land, I, Aku, the shape-shifting Master of Darkness, unleashed an unspeakable evil,
but a foolish samurai warrior wielding a magic sword stepped forth to oppose me. Before the final blow
was struck, I tore open a portal in time and flung him into the future, where my evil is law! Now, the fool
seeks to return to the past, and undo the future that is Aku...
