- Physical Sciences & Engineering Library Databases
- A complete list.
- American Society of Civil Engineers: Civil Engineering Database (CEDB)
- The CEDB Provides Access to over 97,000 Bibliographic and Abstracted Records. Coverage: 1956-
- SciFinder [Registration Required, see below] (https://scifinder.cas.org/)
- SciFinder is the most comprehensive bibliographic database for scholarly research in the field of chemistry. It contains over 29 million citations and indexes over 10,000 journals, covering all aspects of chemistry, including chemical aspects of: biology and life sciences, engineering and materials science, food science, geology, medicine, physics, and polymer science. SciFinder also allows searching of chemical substances, chemical reactions, and includes some property data and spectra. It is the online version of Chemical Abstracts. Cited Reference Searching: 1996 - present. Coverage: 1907 - present (with selected pre-1907 material).

- Java Plug-in required for structure searching (http://www.cas.org/misc/downloads/jreplugin.html)
- SciFinder can only be used by UC students, faculty and staff.
- ECOTOX
- Provides single chemical toxicity information for aquatic and terrestrial life which is useful for examining impacts of chemicals on the environment. Peer-reviewed literature is the primary source for the database including information on the species, chemical, test methods, and results. Coverage: 1972 - present.
- Compendex
- Compendex is the most comprehensive bibliographic database of engineering research literature, containing references to over 5000 engineering journals and conferences. About half the citations (from 2600 journals and conferences) include abstracts and indexing in the records. Coverage: 1884 - present.
- Environmental Fate Data Base
- Bibliographic and experimental values data files on environmental fate and physical/chemical properties.
- Environmental Sciences & Pollution Management
- Major areas of coverage include aquatic pollution, bacteriology, ecology,
energy resources, environmental biotechnology & engineering, environmental
impact statements, hazardous waste, industrial hygiene, microbiology, and
risk assessment. Databases and coverage include:
ASFA 3: Aquatic Pollution and Environmental Quality: 1990-present Biotechnology Research Abstracts: 1980-present Ecology Abstracts 1982-present Environmental Engineering Abstracts 1990-present Health and Safety Science Abstracts 1981-present Industrial and Applied Microbiology Abstracts (Microbiology A) 1982-present Bacteriology Abstracts (Microbiology B) 1982-present Pollution Abstracts 1981-present Risk Abstracts 1990-present Sustainability Science Abstracts 2003-present Toxicology Abstracts 1981-present Water Resources Abstracts 1967-present - EPA Publications Search
