SciFinder Scholar

Good news for those science researchers who would like to use SciFinder Scholar from home! SciFinder is now web-based, and is available from off-campus to all UTD students, faculty and staff. Find SciFinder from the library home page orange button - ARTICLES AND DATABASES - then under 'S' in the alphabetical list. You must create an account with SciFinder using your UTD email.

Television Ads

This is an archive of TV ads from the 1950s to the 1980s - maybe useful for marketing classes or social history - but it's also fun to look at!
