The Oesper Collections are open to the public by appointment. Extended access to the library faculties is available for scholars. Oesper Library materials are also available through Interlibrary Loan services. 

Digital components of the collection are available through this website - the digital photo collection of apparatus museum artifacts is available through JSTOR and the Museum Notes and Museum Booklets linked from the Digital Collections page and hosted in the UC Digital Resource Commons along with a selection of rare books that have been digitized.

Those wishing to tour the museum or use the library collections should email Ted Baldwin (Chemistry Librarian and Director of the Science and Engineering Libraries) and Mark Chalmers (Science and Engineering Librarian).  

The Oesper Collections are located on the west side of the 5th floor of Rieveschl Hall in rooms 520 and 521.
