Welcome!

The George M. Bevier Science & Engineering Library is the primary location for library resources in engineering, the natural sciences, mathematics, and statistics. We support the Swanson School of Engineering and the Departments of Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Geology and Environmental Science, Mathematics, Neuroscience, Physics and Astronomy, and Statistics.

Our collection includes print and electronic resources, books, journals, and databases for searching the subject literature, properties of materials, crystal structures, astronomical data, chemical reactions, and more. We offer a collection of materials on reserve for a variety of courses each term.
