As a division of the ACS, fostering academic research is core to CAS's mission. In the endeavor to meet this goal, CAS has built and sustained long-lasting, beneficial relationships with academic libraries, and academic librarians, around the world in its efforts to provide the most current, comprehensive and complete chemical and related information for scientific discovery.  Going well beyond simply using CAS's products and services, from printed Chemical AbstractsTM to CA on CDTM to STN� to SciFinder�, academic libraries and their librarians and education professionals collaborate closely with CAS to develop and enhance CAS services that more efficiently enable academic research and scientific discoveries.  From helping CAS to promote the FUTURE LEADERS in Chemistry initiative, to training students and faculty, to spreading the word on important chemistry developments in CAS products, academic librarians have been an invaluable resource for CAS.  In this presentation, we will explore the many ways in which CAS's successful collaboration with academic libraries has helped to ensure CAS products and services remain timely and relevant.
