UPDATE: The CRC Handbook of Chemistry & Physics

The online CRC Handbook of Chemistry & Physics now corresponds to the 85th Edition in content and includes the following additions:

- Index of Refraction of Inorganic Crystals
- Azeotropic Data for Binary Mixtures
- Critical Solution Temperatures of Polymer Solutions
- Density of Solvents as a Function of Temperature

By popular request, several tables omitted from recent editions are back, including Coefficients of Friction and Miscibility of Organic Solvents. Ten other sections have been substantially revised, with some, such as the Table of the Isotopes and Thermal Conductivity of Liquids, significantly expanded. The Fundamental Physical Constants section has been updated with the latest CODATA/NIST values, and the Mathematical Tables appendix now features several new sections covering topics that include orthogonal polynomials, Clebsch-Gordan coefficients, and statistics.

D&B Million Dollar Database -- More users

The UT Libraries has increased the subscription to the D&B Million Dollar Database from 1 simultaneous user to 5 simultaneous users. This should make it easier to connect to this electronic resource.
