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.
