  ©2009  |  Prentice Hall  |  On-line Supplement  |  Live
  ISBN-10: 032162520X  |  ISBN-13: 9780321625205
  This online resource is available at no cost at http://www.pearsoncustom.com/custom-library/catalyst.
  Brief Description  | 

  

  With Catalyst: The Prentice Hall Custom Laboratory Program for Chemistry, you can create a custom introductory, preparatory, liberal arts, general, environmental, analytical, physical, GOB, organic, biochemical, or forensic chemistry laboratory manual that meets your content needs and course organization exactly.
  
  Using our online book-building system, you can view and select the Prentice Hall, Vernier, or Pearson Custom Publishing labs you need, in the sequence you want, at the price you want your students to pay. 

  You have the option of publishing your own labs using illustrations from our online Lab Art Library at no additional charge. Add your own course notes and syllabi, or copyrighted material from other publishers: we handle all permissions.

  • NEW! Expanded selection of labs. Our Catalyst online database now includes 32 lab manuals and collections covering 11 different chemistry lab courses. Seven of these lab manuals are new or revised in 2008, including Boyer, Biochemistry Laboratory 1/e.
  • NEW! Revised lab manuals to accompany Brown/LeMay/Bursten, Chemistry: The Central Science 11/e (Nelson/Kemp); and McMurry/Fay, Chemistry 5/e (Dillon).
  • NEW! Enhanced collection of labs from Vernier Software and Technology. Now you have the option of choosing any of the 38 labs in Holmquist/Volz, Chemistry with Vernier, and the 35 labs in Randall, et al., Advanced Chemistry with Vernier. On our BookBuild site, you can view and select labs designed for a computer running Vernier’s Logger Pro data-collection program in a lab setting. (Many of these labs require the use of one or more of Vernier’s 10 probes and sensors.) Alternative versions of these labs — for LabQuest™ devices, Texas Instruments graphing calculators running DataMate or EasyData, or for Palm handhelds — can also be added to your Catalyst custom manual by request.
  • NEW! Distinctive and colorful cover designs. Catalyst now offers six entirely new cover designs that you can customize with your specific course information.
  • Create your Catalyst custom lab manual using our online Book-Build system and request a free evaluation copy delivered in 7-10 business days!

   Additional Lab Publishing Features include: 

  • Include 11 different types of print-on-demand graph paper sheets inserted anywhere in your lab manual, OR order the quantity of 2-page NCR carbonless graph paper units you need bound into the back of your custom manual 
  • Full-color printing of your original digital color photographs or illustrations in a special appendix.
  • You can design your own original customized lab worksheets or data forms printed on 2-page NCR carbonless graph paper units and bound into the back of your custom manual.
  • Selectable interior designs for your original lab content   
  • Online Lab Art Library with illustrations you can use with your original labs at no extra charge
  • Image research and illustration creation services
