Research Aids

Research Aids include the CIS online search database, Current Index to Statistics,  and the on-campus Oscar Kempthorne Statistics Reading Room. 

The CIS Extended Database is a valuable resource available to researchers needing quick literature searches in the fields of probability and statistics. CIS users have immediate online access to references of over 200,000 articles.

The Oscar Kempthorne Statistics Reading Room, located in Wilson Hall, is collection of statistical publications frequently used by those doing research and/or involved with courses in Statistics.  This facility is a great convenience and benefit for those studying statistics at ISU.
