SUBJECT AREA:  QC - PHYSICS

Purpose (major target group and interdisciplinary relationships): Students in the minor, major or honours programme in physics.

Existing Collection Strength: Selective in most branches of Physics.

Current Collecting Intensity: Representative for most branches of Physics.

Geographic focus: North America.

Chronological focus: None.

Languages collected: English.

Formats collected: Paper, micro formats, video and computer software.

Access to Journal Articles: ProQuest Research Library does not adequately address this area. General Science Index and Applied Science and Technology Index provide access to limited general research. Faculty have access to the indexing of tables of contents provided by Current Contents, WEB of Science* [Science Citation Index], MathSciNet* and CarlUncover.  IOPP*, Springer-Verlag Link*, and IDEAL Library* provides additional full text journal article access. The cost of document delivery from these systems is the responsibility of individual faculty members. Mediated searching is provided on the INSPEC database free of charge for faculty and students. [Access is through the CNSLP Agreement.]
