UNH Chemistry Branch Library

The Chemistry Branch of the UNH Library System is located in the Iddles Auditorium section of Parsons Hall. The Chemistry Branch (also called, "the Chemistry Library") is situated across Academic Way (formerly College Road) from the Paul Creative Arts Center, and is flanked on either side by Kingsbury Hall and McConnell Hall. It is also convenient to Morse Hall, which gives it proximity to most researchers in the areas of physical sciences and technology.

The Chemistry Library is primarily a research facility for use by individuals in the areas of analytical, inorganic, organic and physical chemistry, as well as chemical engineering and related disciplines. On its three floors is kept the chemistry core curriculum journal collection for the University, as well as a large selection of relevant monographs, symposia and series in all fields of chemistry. Chemistry instructional materials, including course reserves, are also available, and there is wireless Internet access in addition to several public computer workstations. Despite its research activities, the Chemistry Library has the reputation of being one of the few quiet places on campus in which to study.

New Chemistry Books (monthly list)

Selected Chemistry Links

Copying and Printing: All copying and printing at UNH Libraries requires Cat's Cache, the UNH debit system. The cost is 10 cents per page. The Chemistry Library sells re-usable guest cards for 50 cents (5 copies) during weekday hours. UNH faculty, staff, and students may use UNH ID cards for Cat's Cache (students have accounts automatically set up). For more information, see the UNH Dining Cat's Cache page or check with Library staff.

Scanning: Branch library copiers provide scanning at no charge. A Cat's Cache card is used to activate the scanner service, but no funds are debited. If you do not have a card, please ask staff to swipe one for you. Scanned pages are sent to the email address that you input. If you require a dedicated scanner for larger projects, print and microform scanning is available at no charge at Dimond Library.
