The SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS) is a Digital Library portal for researchers in Astronomy and Physics, operated by the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) under a NASA grant. The ADS maintains three bibliographic databases containing more than 7.1 million records: Astronomy and Astrophysics, Physics, and arXiv e-prints.

Mirroring the growth and direction of science for nearly a century, the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, continues to be the most accessed and respected scientific reference in the world, used by students and Nobel Laureates.

Search across a wide variety of disciplines and sources: articles, theses, books, abstracts and court opinions. Set Caltech Library as the library access link. Under settings, look for library links, and search for "California Institute of Technology - Get It @ Caltech."

Access to over 40,000 titles, books, and videos across areas including programming, data analysis, math, science, engineering, business, arts, psychology, economics, political science, history, and more. The video collection currently includes over 800 self-paced tutorials of varying duration (from 2 to over 98 hours).

In order to use the new platform, log-in using your @caltech.edu email address, select SSO, and then you will be asked to log-in with access.caltech credentials. Although this is tedious, this should work seamlessly on- and off-campus (no VPN or proxy required), as well as with their mobile app [iOS/Android only -- not Kindle-compatible]. Please let us know if you encounter any difficulties or have any other feedback on this resource.
