On Friday, January 9 from 7 am – 11 am, work will be underway to restore normal electrical power to Braunstein Hall. Temporary generators used to power the building in the interim will be shut off.
Since there will be no power supply to Geology-Math-Physics Library (located in Braunstein Hall) the Library will be opening at 11 am.
Contact Ted Baldwin, Director of Science and Engineering Libraries, with questions: 513-556-4211 or Ted.Baldwin@uc.edu.
On October 19, UC Libraries and UCIT co-sponsored two High Performance Computing workshops, taught by staff of the Ohio Supercomputing Center (OSC).

Join the University of Cincinnati Libraries for a series of workshops on data management planning! The workshops will address universal data management best practices for health science, science and engineering students and professionals. While much of the focus is on STEM fields, this course will be useful for anyone interested in learning more about data management practices and principles. Each workshop will include a teaching portion and hands on activities. We recommend that registrants attend all five workshops if possible. Workshops will be held in the Health Science Library (HSL) Electronic Classroom G005G.

Hello! I am Amy Koshoffer, the new UC Libraries Science Informationist.
I am one member of a team of informationists working to provide research data services and instruction to the UC research community. My primary focus will be on researchers in Engineering and the Sciences, including Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science, Geology, Geography, Mathematics, and Physics. The informationist team includes others based in the Health Sciences Library (East Campus), including Tiffany Grant, a Research Informationist who is focusing on services to biomedical researchers.
Three new subject areas are now available via UC’s subscription to the Knovel e-book and e-data resource. (All links will prompt for your UC Central Login when off-campus)
Note: once you access a link, scroll down to view a list of included titles.
Knovel contains e-books and interactive data sets for science, engineering, and related areas: sustainable energy, pharmaceuticals, textiles, and operations management.
