About Kresge Library

Kresge Physical Sciences Library provides collections and information

services that support research, teaching, and learning in astronomy &

physics, chemistry, earth sciences, environmental studies, and physical

geography.

Cook Mathematics Collection

The Cook Mathematics Collection is where you will find the majority of the

mathematics and computer science books and journals in the Dartmouth

Library. The Cook Collection is located on Berry Level 3.

Photocopying, Scanning & GreenPrint

Kresge has a color scanner with monitor where you can make high-quality

scans, and send the files to your email account at no charge. A GreenPrint

printer/scanner/copier is also available. Students receive an allocation of $20

per term of free printing, with a double-sided page costing 8.5¢. GreenPrint

printer/copiers and more scanners are also available in Berry Library.

Research Help

Subject specialist librarians are here to help you find answers, explore your

research topic, or do a comprehensive literature search. Requests for

assistance can be sent via email to any Kresge librarian or to

kresge.library@dartmouth.edu. You can also just drop by librarians’ offices in

Kresge. Ask us!

Course Reserves

Kresge Library offers access to print and online materials as part of our

course reserve service. Course reserve items can be checked out for either 2,

4, or 24 hours, depending on the course. Baker Reserves handles reserves for

math and computer science courses. You can find course reserve items,

whether print or online, in the library catalog.

Group Study Room

Book Kresge’s Group Study Room for up to 3 hours at a time, in person or by

phone. You can reserve the room up to one week in advance.

Off-Campus Access to Library Resources

You can access Dartmouth’s online journals, books, and databases from

anywhere in the world using the VPN F5 Big-IP Client. For more information,

follow the “Off-Campus Access” link from the Library’s website.

DartDoc & BorrowDirect

Books and articles that are not available at Dartmouth can be requested

through the library’s DartDoc service. There is no charge for this service for

Dartmouth users. BorrowDirect is another (sometimes faster) option for

obtaining books from a regional network of cooperating university libraries.

Workshops & Guides

Workshops on a variety of research-related topics take place throughout the

year. Take advantage of opportunities to explore new databases and

information discovery tools, or to fine tune your research workflow.

Kresge’s current workshop calendar can be found on the Kresge website.

Prefer the self-guided approach? Use the “Research Guides” links on the

Kresge front page to find recommended resources in astronomy & physics,

chemistry, earth sciences, environmental studies, math, and computer

science.

Loan Periods & Circulation Policies

The loan period for books* is 120 days for students and one year for faculty.

We also lend out useful items like laptop and phone chargers, headphones,

calculators, flash drives, and more. Need something? Ask us!

You can renew most* items online via the “My Library Accounts” link, as well

as by email, by phone, or in person.
