The purpose of this section is to provide engineering resources for educators of all grade levels. It is not meant to be a comprehensive bibliography, but a tool to help educators get started in their research. Additional works on engineering may be identified by browsing the Library of Congress Online Catalog using the appropriate subject headings. Choose the topics you wish to search from the recommended lists of Library of Congress subject headings to link directly to the catalog and automatically execute a search for the subject selected. For assistance in locating other subject headings which relate to engineering, please use our Ask a Librarian service.
