Mid-terms are behind you, and Thanksgiving break lies ahead

• Above is a picture of a new book cabinet on campus, displaying the work of Caltech faculty. The first undergraduate to identify its location, and the titles of the books by Cindy Weinstein,J. Morgan Kousser, John Brewer, Catherine Jurca,and Jean-Laurent Rosenthal will win a $50 Amazon gift certificate, sponsored by the library and an anonymous academic division. Please email lindsay@library.caltech.edu with your entries, starting Saturday, November 14th.

• Web of Knowledge is one of over 200 databases the library subscribes to. It is extremely powerful, and a terrific source for journal articles. If you are curious to learn about the research a faculty member has done, this is a good place to start. Say you'd like to read up a bit on the work of Rudy A. Marcus, the Arthur Amos Noyes Professor of Chemistry. On the Web of K search page, enter his name in a search box, and select "author." Then enter 91125, Caltech's zipcode, in another search box, and select "address." You should come up with 241 hits; if you don't, see your house librarian.

• Interested in e-books? The library is starting to collect them. This guide will tell you more.
