Materials Science

NOTE: If you plan to use the new and updated SciFinderⁿ database (AKA "Scifinder-n" on web pages that don't support the superscript " ⁿ "), please note that this is available ONLY for current UAH students/faculty/staff.

If you are a UAH student, you can set up an account through this link.

Visit our SciFinder Library Guide for more information about using this resource.

NOTE: Because SciFinderⁿ is the new interface from CAS, they have recently provided a series of free webinars to introduce how to use the new SciFinderⁿ interface.

If you are interested in viewing any of the recorded webinars, you can find that menu here.

You can also sign up to view future CAS webinars on SciFinderⁿ.

There are many ways that you can reach us for your research questions and general reference help:

• LibChat is on many library web pages and databases, available  Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm.
• The best way to reach us outside of those hours is at refdesk@uah.edu
• For in-depth help, request a 1-on-1 Research Consultation to speak with a librarian on a preferred day and time (generally in the same Mon-Fri 9am-5pm range, though exceptions might be possible). We have a variety of tools (including Zoom and Google Hangouts) for "face to face" video conferencing.
