ASTM publishes all symposia papers in book format (known as STPs or Selected Technical Papers). These are individual publications searchable in Infokat Discovery (online catalog) and are NOT an ASTM standard.
UK Faculty, Staff and Affiliates:
As of January 1, 2016 UK Libraries will no longer purchase individual standards for UK employees. You may purchase standards at cost from the following providers:
The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from. -- Andrew Tanenbaum in Computer Networks
What is a standard or specification?
How do I find a Standard?
Start with Infokat Discovery to see if UK Libraries own it. If you cannot find the standard or have questions, please contact the Science & Engineering Library at 7-0121 for assistance.
How can I tell if UK owns a standard?
If we own the standard there will be record in Infokat Discovery. The exceptions are SAE J Standards and ASTM standards - see TAB above.
If UK doesn't own the standard I want, do I need to purchase it?
You will need to place an order using a credit card or whatever method the vendor requires.
How long does it take to receive an order?
Electronic documents are generally quicker to arrive than print. Contact the vendor for more information.
Does UK have SAE J standards?
The Society of Automotive Engineers issues a handbook each year that contains the “J” standards for the industry. We have the annual CD-ROMs through 2010 available in the Science & Engineering Library - please ask at the desk.
Does UK have ASTM standards?
The Science & Engineering Library has the entire 2010 collection available on the shelf on the 3rd Floor past the public copy machine on the right in the Engineering Reference Collection.
