ACM

The ACM Digital Library contains bibliographic information and the full-text of articles published in ACM (Association for Computing Machinery) journals, magazines, and conference proceedings. Tables of contents from journals and magazines are available from issues dated 1954+. Tables of contents from conference proceedings are available since 1970. Tables of contents for ACM Newsletters published since 1985 are provided.


If you already have the title of the journal/magazine or conference proceedings, proceed to the search box for each type of material by clicking on it in the right-hand “browse the digital library” category.


If you are not certain of the type of material or the author, use basic "Search: The ACM Digital Library" box on the main page. Check with a librarian if your search is more complex than what the basic search will accomplish.
