Introduction

Welcome to UC Berkeley! On a large campus such as ours, you'll find that there are many libraries serving different academic departments spread all around different buildings. As non-UC Berkeley students, you'll still have access to all the libraries and can browse and photocopy the collections but cannot check anything out. The one exception is the Moffitt and Gardner Libraries, where a UC Berkeley ID is required for entry. If you need an item from these collections, please contact Jeff or Lisa.

All of our online resources are available to you when you are in your labs on campus.

Subject libraries that are heavily used by science and engineering students and faculty include: Engineering Library, Physics-Astronomy Library, Chemistry and Chemical Engineering Library, Mathematics-Statistics Library, and the Bioscience and Natural Resources Library.

OskiCat is the catalog for UC Berkeley and includes all libraries on campus. Start with a keyword search, and then use subject headings for additional searching. The records will tell you the call number and location (library) for each book.

Many books covering nanoscience and nanotechnology topics are found in the call number area TA418.9, so you could browse the shelves at that location.
