UB-EERI Earthquake Engineering Library

UB-EERI has recently purchased several useful publications from EERI. The goal of the UB-EERI Earthquake Engineering Library is to make useful materials readily available to our members. The following titles are now available, and in the future we hope to add to this. If there are any publications that you feel would be useful to the UB-EERI members, feel free to let one of the officers know.

The following titles are available:

All publications are available from Dan Fenz in 206 Ketter for the time being. When renovations to the main Ketter Hall offices are complete, we hope to find a more permanent home for them there.

 As stated earlier, the goal of the UB-EERI Earthquake Engineering Library is to make these publications readily available to UB-EERI members. There are no formal due dates or fines, but please be courteous to your colleagues. Please don’t keep books for excessive periods of time and please try to keep them in good condition so that they can be used for years to come.

 Thank you and enjoy!
