About This Subject About Icons Acceptable Use Policy

From indices and abstracts of the literature to full-text journals, from handbooks and dictionaries to preprints, this is the place to begin. This web page contains links to resources for your search of the physical and astronomical literature. The Chemistry-Physics Library (231 Nieuwland Science Hall) contains recent physics and astronomy print resources not available electronically. Older print physics and astronomy resources can be found in the lower level of the Hesburgh Library. Contact the Physics Librarian for information about how to use these electronic resources and any print resource.
