CHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT
(College of Science & Mathematics)
Librarian Liaison: Deborah Fetch
Faculty Representative: Fred Matthews
Location of Collection: Woodward Library, Level 3
Overall Collecting Level: present level D=basic; Desired level
is C=Study
Purpose/program description: The role of the Chemistry
program and collection is to support teaching scientific method and
fundamentals of chemistry to general education students. The collection
should also support the research efforts of chemistry majors and provide
support to basic chemistry instruction for students who are majoring and
minoring in other scientific fields.
