The library has a comprehensive collection of engineering books and materials, both in print and online. Printed books and journals can be found in the T section on the back of the second floor. There are also many U.S. government publications on engineering in the U.S. Government section on the first floor near the Reference Desk.

To find articles on a current topic in engineering, check out one of the library's engineering subject databases. Magazine and journal articles are usually published more quickly than books and other information, so they are most useful for finding recent information. Databases also often have other types of materials, including news, dictionaries, conference proceedings, and reports.

The library provides several online informational research guides that will give you access to a variety of engineering resources. Check out one of these guides to get a good overview of library resources.
