Welcome to the Fermilab Library Library@fnal.gov
The Fermilab Library provides support for researchers at the lab, and for the high energy physics community worldwide. We provide access to eBooks, online journals, databases, and engineering standards to those affiliated with the lab. We share our resources outside the lab via interlibrary loan. The Fermilab Library is part of the Information Resources Department, which also facilitates Fermilab’s contributions to INSPIRE, the one-stop information platform for the HEP community, concentrating on Literature Records, Jobs, and Author Identity.
Library Announcements
New Library System and Catalog: OCLC WMS has been fully implemented. For more information, see our Resource Guide on Using WorldCat.
New Platform for Engineering Standards Coming in November: We are in the process of renewing our engineering standards subscription. The new contract will be with Accuris, as they have acquired Techstreet. Sometime in November, standards will be available on the Accuris Engineering Workbench platform. Training sessions will be offered on the platform once the change is finalized.
Databases Available from the IL State Library: The IL State Library has negotiated to provide access to some Ebsco databases to all Illinois libraries. Access is provided by IP recognition when on site and via VPN when working off site. A list of linked databases is available at https://library.fnal.gov/illinois-state-library-e-resource-program/.
