This comprehensive directory of the most current information on two-, three-, and four-year college and university teachers of chemistry, biochemistry, biotechnology, chemical engineering, chemical technology, medicinal chemistry, and other chemistry-related fields in the United States, its territories, and Canada will be of great use and interest not only to chemistry faculty members but to graduate and undergraduate students, librarians, and departmental secretaries as well. For each of the more than 2,150 academic departments devoted to these disciplines the entire staffs (except for emeriti, emeritae, adjunct, or visiting professors; persons on temporary appointment; postdoctoral fellows; research associates; or graduate students) are listed, along with major teaching fields, highest degree earned, and academic rank. Other departments, such as biology or physical science, in which these disciplines are taught are also included, but only persons who teach chemistry or related subjects are listed for these departments.

A 45-page (four columns per page) index of 16,939 faculty members adds to the utility of this directory, which is a perfect companion volume for three related ACS directories - the ACS Directory of Graduate Research (DGR) (Kauffman, G. B. J. Chem. Educ. 1996, 73, A136), Chemical Research Faculties: An International Directory (CRF) (Kauffman, G. B. J. Chem. Educ. 1989, 66, A48), and Chemical Sciences Graduate School Finder 1995­1996 (GSF). The great increase in length compared to the CCF 9th edition (1993, vii + 197 pp, $84.95) is due to the larger, easier-to-read type, wider margins, and inclusion for the first time of degrees awarded; departmental FAX numbers; electronic mail, gopher, and World Wide Web page addresses; and faculty electronic mail addresses.
