The most useful library article databases for this class will be:

• IEEE Xplore
• Engineering Village - Compendex
• Applied Science & Technology Source

Below are links to some of the articles you can find using these databases (once you find an article you want, look for an html or pdf full text link, or a Get It/ Get This Article/ link to get the full text of the article):

Library Catalog

Use the catalog to find books we have in the Kresge Library. Also use the catalog to see if we have access to a particular journal title online or in print. Here are some sample searches:

• Subject contains "Linear systems"
• Keywords contain "signal processing" and (linear or analog)

Interlibrary Loan
You may request materials we don't have and we'll borrow them from another library for you.
