Guide to IEEE Standards

A question most typically asked with respect to engineering standards is simply this: "Does this library have such-and-such a standard?" WL currently has four volumes containing over fifty separate IEEE standards but these volumes lack both an index and table of contents so that an answer to this seemingly straight- forward question actually involves an extended search through the four volumes. The purpose of this guide is to simply list the IEEE standards currently held in WL. A complete list of IEEE standards can be found at their Website.

A "w" after a standard indicates that the standard has been withdrawn by IEEE, but it remains in the collection for archival value. A "s.e." indicates that the standard is contained in the IEEE Software Engineering Collection listed below.

Most of the standards are collectively assigned the call number: REF T 59.2 U52 I5 and arranged in the four volumes as follows:
