Richard Feynman gave seven well-known lectures at Cornell University from 1961-1964. Richard Feynman, who won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1965 for "fundamental work in quantum electrodynamics, with deep-ploughing consequences for the physics of elementary particles" and who worked on the Manhattan Project while still a graduate student, was also known as excelling at making science understandable to undergraduates.

Library Services for Science Students
Cunningham Memorial Library at Indiana State University offers one stop shopping for students. Whether students need help with researching a topic, writing a paper, or finding a book, ISU Library is The Campus Living Room. Effective services to distance education students is a priority of the ISU Library.
The library promotes the educational and research missions of ISU by providing the collections, services, and environments that lead to intellectual discovery, creativity, and the exchange of ideas. The library collections include more than two million items. The library catalog facilitates access to over 3000 electronic books and over 10,000 electronic government documents. Preference is given to collecting journals and periodicals in an online format. The library provides access to over 230 databases that include journals, magazines, newspapers, electronic books, and other sources.
Science Literature
The literature and resources of the science disciplines are heavily structured around the scientific method. Because science is based on experimentation and observation, publications of original research are very important. The examination of existing theories and the evaluation of their supporting evidence is very important in the development of new questions to ask and new experiments to perform.
The publication of research helps distribute ideas and theories to other scientists. The distribution encourages discussion of the ideas therein. The discussion generates new ideas for further research or consideration. The entire process adds to our knowledge of the world.
