Another first for Cranfield alumni: Online access to AIAA Journals and Meeting Papers
23/02/2017
We are delighted to announce that AIAA (the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics) have agreed to a one year trial of their content especially for Cranfield alumni through our Alumni Library Online (ALO) service. We are the first university to have sought and negotiated access for alumni! Until February 2018 you will have access to most of the AIAA journals from 2008 onwards, and to meeting papers from 1963 onwards. The journals included are:
- AIAA Journal
- Journal of Aircraft
- Journal of Guidance, Control and Dynamics
- Journal of Propulsion and Power
- Journal of Spacecraft and Rockets
Because this is a trial, we are very keen to hear your feedback on how useful this resource is to you. Contact us at libraryalumni@cranfield.ac.uk to comment.
