New RSC Search Platform

The Royal Society of Chemistry has launched a new site, RSC Publishing, which offers one-stop searching of all their journal article and book chapter content. Further details of the new features available can be found here.

Ferroelectrics

The Library has acquired limited and incomplete paper holdings (selected issues between 1990 and 2007) of the journal Ferroelectrics. For full details, see the catalogue record here.

Ceramic Engineering and Science Proceedings

The library's print-only subscription to CESP covers the years 1982 - 1991, in closed access, and 1992 - present on the open shelves. Historically it has been catalogued in various ways, and it may not always be clear from Newton, whether we have a volume. If you need a paper from the series, please ask.

New Wiley interface

The Wiley Online Library is expected to go live on 24th July, replacing the Wiley Interscience platform.

DSpace Repository - reminder

Many full-text theses and other documents are available via DSpace, the institutional repository of the University of Cambridge. This department has a substantial section, or community, in the respository.

Older stock

Please note that the stock of the MSM Library includes numerous older items (e.g. 1960 and earlier) which have never been catalogued on Newton. If such material might be useful to you, do ask the librarian for further details.
