The SPIE (The International Society for Optical Engineering) Digital Library is the most extensive resource available on optics and photonics. Researchers have unprecedented access to 200,000 technical papers from SPIE Journals and Proceedings, including full coverage from 1990 to the present. More than 17,000 new technical papers are added annually.

Most SPIE publications are also available in print at the UAH Library. To locate SPIE publications in the library, you must convert the volume number to a library call number.
