This list of sources may be helpful to those students interested in Polymers.  Sources helpful to Plastics Engineering students are extensive.  Students should browse the reference shelves in the TP1000 area and also TA 455.P58 to see the extent of our collection.  A large number of important Plastics Engineering books, used heavily in courses, are on permanent reserve.  For permanent reserve items, ask at the Reserve Desk.  Material must be used in the Library.
