How to Locate Conference Proceedings  Tags: proceedings symposia conferences preprints meetings transactions papers abstracts symposium engineering association science scientific  

SPIE website. 

Proceedings of the SPIE are published as individual books.  Quickest way to find these in library catalogs or WorldCat is to do a keyword search on SPIE and the volume number of the proceeding you need.

Some SPIE proceedings that were co-sponsored by IEEE may also be available in IEEE Xplore.

SPIE publications are searchable online.

SPIE Digital Library contains full-text access to SPIE proceedings and journals from 1998 to the present and work is 95% complete at extending this back to 1990.  Some Proceedings volumes are available only in print as SPIE does not have electronic rights to this material.  Click here for a listing of volumes that are not available in the SPIE Digital Library.  The ISU Library does not own the SPIE Digital Library and only selectively purchases SPIE Proceedings volumes.
