UNITS WITH RELATED MATERIALS IN THE YALE LIBRARY SYSTEM
The Kline Science (physics materials and chemistry monographic works)
Mathematics and Chemistry Libraries have holdings which relate to
the applied aspects of their respective disciplines.
Additional works in environmental engineering can be found at the
Forestry & Environmental Studies Library and the Epidemiology & Public Health Library.
The Medical Library has additional materials related to biomedical
engineering.
The Art & Architecture Library collects some materials in the areas
of civil and construction engineering. (The EAS Library does not collect
in these areas.)
