Reading list and molecular model kits for undergraduate students

The set of recommended textbooks for core modules in chemistry can be purchased through Blackwell's at University Park Campus. Several copies of these textbooks are also available to access free of charge in the libraries. You don't have to buy or read course textbooks before you start your course, and you may wish to sample textbooks from the library before deciding which ones are right for you.
