About

The Swain Library offers broad coverage of chemistry and chemical engineering resources. Due to licensing restrictions, access to some online resources is limited to current Stanford students, faculty, and staff. Quiet study areas with lots of natural light are available. Computers are available in the front of the library and in a training area that is located in the back reading room. Course reserves and iPads that circulate are available from the Swain Library's circulation desk. Reference help is available in-person and via email. Topic and course guides provide "one-stop" shopping for key resources.
