91��Ƭ��

The 91��Ƭ�� Scientific Instrumentation Inventory (SII) is a new tool to manage and search the extensive collection of instruments at 91��Ƭ��.

It has been developed by the Research Computing Center and University Instrumentation Center staff to provide a complete and accurate inventory of 91��Ƭ��’s scientific equipment and instruments for many purposes, including:

• Identifying potential collaborations, internal and external to 91��Ƭ��
• Providing easy access to information needed for research proposals to external sponsors
• Determining potential availability/accessibility for broader equipment use on campus
• Identifying opportunities to create “Core Facilities”
• Identifying opportunities to pool service contract coverage to use institutional funds efficiently
• Identifying when equipment/instruments need to be serviced or anticipate replaced
