Chemistry

The online and print collections of the Library encompass all areas of chemistry and related chemical sciences, with particular emphasis given to current and emerging areas of research and teaching at the University. Use this guide to find out more about the resources we offer.

In addition to a rich collection of information resources, the Library offers a suite of services to support teaching and research needs, including interlibrary loan, off-campus access options, training and support for the use of bibliographic management tools (e.g., EndNote, RefWorks), customized library instruction, and more. 

If you have questions about library services or resources, especially during this time of only online access, please contact me!

Almost all Library databases can be accessed from off-campus. The easiest way to do this is to use links from the Library website. You will then be prompted for your CNetID and password to authenticate yourself as an authorized user.

If you find sources through Google Scholar or other search engines, you may not automatically get access to Library resources. Use the ProxyIt bookmarklet or Libkey Nomad in these situations. There's more information on these in our guide to off-campus access.
