Perry's Chemical Engineering Handbook is no longer available through Knovel at the Van Pelt Library (see discussion below). If you are an AIChE member, you may access it for free at www.aiche.org (you will need your user name and log-in.

Thanks

AccessEngineering is the name of McGraw Hill's engineering collection. That is the source for the free access to Perry's for AIChE members. This is a great deal for AIChE individual members ; and it looks like the membership is free for undergraduates. Less of a deal for graduate students or non AIChE members who might have an occasional need.

Hi All,
Perry's has not been available on Knovel for a while. However, it is available free to all AICHE members on-line at www.aiche.org thru another service.

Hi Faith,
This is the result of a publisher battle. McGraw Hill pulled all of their contents out of the Knovel database including Perry's handbook. The message is a default one, and somewhat misleading since a subscription is not possible. McGraw Hills does not offer a stand alone Perry's subscription, but would require us to subscribe a full collection of McGraw Hill engineering reference tools. We've been searching for other alternatives to get access to Perry's at a price we can afford. So far, we've not found any since McGraw Hill owns the title.
