ASU Library: Where the Physics Books are Located

A majority of ASU Library's books are going to be located in the High Density Storage Collection Stacks on the Polytechnic campus. The best way to access these books will be to search for them in the library catalog using One Search and requesting the book be sent to the ASU Library location of your choice for pick up.

However, there are still physics books located at a couple of the ASU Library locations:

  • Noble Library (Tempe campus)
    Contains books related to all areas of physics.
  • Fletcher Library (West Valley campus)
    Contain small collections of physics, primarily duplicates of what is available in Noble Library. 

The ASU Library also has an extension collection of electronic books available online.

The ASU Library acknowledges the twenty-three Native Nations that have inhabited this land for centuries. Arizona State University's four campuses are located in the Salt River Valley on ancestral territories of Indigenous peoples, including the Akimel O’odham (Pima) and Pee Posh (Maricopa) Indian Communities, whose care and keeping of these lands allows us to be here today. ASU Library acknowledges the sovereignty of these nations and seeks to foster an environment of success and possibility for Native American students and patrons. We are advocates for the incorporation of Indigenous knowledge systems and research methodologies within contemporary library practice. ASU Library welcomes members of the Akimel O’odham and Pee Posh, and all Native nations to the Library.
