Locating critically evaluated synthetic methods and full experimental procedures for a functional group transformation using:
This year’s NCW theme celebrated the Periodic Table of the Elements. To view more resources on periodic tables, go to the Resources for NCW 2009 site or see Swain’s Periodic Tables page.
Print jobs are billed in one of three ways (see below). It costs 10 cents per page to print and 13 cents per page to photocopy.
You need to purchase a copy card. The card itself costs $1. Additional funds must be deposited onto the card to be available for printing. Select the printer called “ChemLib-KioskPrinter.” This printer is located on the right side when you enter the Swain Library.
Please note that Swain’s cash-to-card dispenser machine does not accept any “new” bills (Green and Engineering Libraries dispenser machines will accept new bills). Please bring crisp $1 bills to add money to a dispenser card as Swain does not have any cash on hand to make change.
I am very pleased to announce that Blandine Clausing will start work as Swain’s Library Specialist on Monday, October 26, 2009. Blandine is replacing Jonathan Hoffer who resigned in August to attend graduate school at UC-Davis. Blandine brings a wealth of experience to our position as she has worked as the Serials Specialist at the Engineering Library since 1993. At Swain, she will be the key contact for course reserves. Her duties will also include handling serials, acquisitions, circulation, web pages and last but not least assisting users at the circulation desk.
Mark your calendar: This year’s National Chemistry Week (NCW) celebration will be October 18–24, 2009, and the NCW theme this year is “Chemistry — It’s Elemental,” in recognition of the 140th anniversary of the Periodic Table of the Elements.
“SpringerImages provides a new way to access hard-to-find scientific content of the utmost value to researchers: images.”

Now available via the web as a campus-wide site license, the NIST X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) Database gives easy access to the energies of many photoelectron and Auger-electron spectral lines. Resulting from a critical evaluation of the published literature, the database contains over 29,000 line positions, chemical shifts, doublet splittings, and energy separations of photoelectron and Auger-electron lines. A highly interactive program allows the user to search by element, line type, line energy, and many other variables. Users can easily identify unknown measured lines by matching to previous measurements.
Advances in Chemical Physics is an international forum for the review and critical evaluation of the science that has propelled every area of the discipline. Each volume contains discussions of aspects of the state of diverse subjects in chemical physics and related fields, with chapters written by top researchers in the field from around the world.
The series now comprises more than 130 volumes covering the period from the mid 1960s to the present. Collectively, they represent the history of modern chemical physics. Discussions of all areas of chemical physics, with extensions to biophysics and soft matter physics can be found in these volumes.
Edited by such eminent scientists as Nobel Laureate Ilya Prigogine and National Medal of Science Winner Stuart Rice, this series has played a key role in defining the field.
