International Year of Chemistry Resources
Both the American Chemical Society and Nature have posted Web pages for IYC.
ACS' is 365: Chemistry for Life. Browse through 365 days of chemicals or chemical breakthroughs, or select from four categories of chemistry: energy, environment, health, materials. Today, it's Fermium: http://iyc2011.acs.org/2011/01/16/fermium/, tomorrow, it's artificial snow.
Nature's International Year of Chemistry page is a "special" and will be updated throughout the year.

CrossFire - now Reaxys (and Web-enabled!)
CrossFire was discontinued as of December 31, 2010. The library has signed a license for Reaxys, its Web-equivalent. Reaxys can be accessed via: http://ezproxy.lib.ucalgary.ca:2048/login?url=https://www.reaxys.com/
Signing up for an account is optional, however, it allows one to change the default structure editor, save searches, and receive alerts. More information on Reaxys is available here (and more info to come.)

Winter 2011 and TFDL
Welcome back!
Hopefully you all did well on your finals, and had a good break!
Over the break, library staff worked hard to get the new Taylor Family Digital Library (TFDL) ready for January 3. The Learning Commons, spanning the first two floors, is open, with new computers and workrooms.
Most of the "old" Info Commons computers in MacKimmie will slowly be decommissioned in the near future.
Visit the new Learning Commons - the TFDL is the black and white building next to MacKimmie. Or, have a look at these pics.
