Access is available in two forms: Individual Virtual Library Access and Library Service Contract.

> Sign Up to Become a Virtual Library User		Individual Virtual Library Access (On-Line Access Only) This access plan gives the user access to Material ConneXion's on-line database of innovative materials. The custom-designed search engine allows for searches by keyword, product name, manufacturer name and Material ConneXion index number. The information provided is complete enough to satisfy an engineer or scientist who is an expert in materials, yet also user friendly enough to be useful to the architect or designer who is not. Each material information page includes high-quality graphic representations of the material, technical specifications, and how to acquire material samples. As a user, you can also be notified of new additions to the material archive. Just another way to stay on top of the fast-paced world of materials. Additional benefits of this user access plan include: Invitations to all Material Connexion openings and events 10% discount on books and products offered by Material Connexion Quarterly newsletter Matter Monthly e-mail updates on material additions to the archive Sign Up Now See a Demo of the Materials Database

		Library Service Contract (On-site & On-line Access) The ultimate in user access, this plan allows you to conduct research at the physical archive at Material ConneXion's New York headquarters. We strongly feel that materials need to be experienced to be fully appreciated. Moreover, on-site archive research brings explorative minds into chance contact with materials that they otherwise may never have thought to investigate. Our professional archivists will assist you with your searches if you like. Alternatively, browse through the archive at your own pace. We have developed user access plans that fit the needs of both individuals and firms of all sizes. Additional benefits include: Invitations to all Material ConneXion openings and events 10% discount on books and products offered by Material ConneXion Quarterly newsletter Matter Monthly e-mail update on material additions to the archive For more information about these "in-person" access plans, please contact us at 212-842-2050 or access@materialconnexion.com.
