Need
to understand a
topic but
don't need the in-depth presentation of a textbook?
Try a specialised
handbook or
encyclopaedia.
These sources are intended for the professional engineer who needs a
quick,
reliable answer, but does not have a library of textbooks at hand.
For specific lists go to
| Civil
engineering | Coastal engineering | Construction
| Computer
applications | Earthquake
engineering | Environmental
engineering
| Geotechnical
engineering | Management
| Mathematics
| Materials
| Mining | Professional practice | Structural
engineering

Who
wrote what, when, where?
When you need to find articles or papers on a topic use an appropriate
database or index to find out what has been
written.
Some databases will provide a link to the full text of an
article; where this is not the case, check the Library Catalogue and
see if we provide access to the source journal.
For all topics in Civil and Environmental engineering start with Ei Compendex or CEDB (Civil Engineering DataBase from the
ASCE) which each cover a wide range of subjects.
For Australian issues in engineering see ENGINE: Australian Engineering Database
from the IEAust
