Biology Databases
Our search engine databases are not your normal "Google-like" search engines! We have access to search engine databases that *only* search scientific journals. These journals contain professional, peer-reviewed articles. These are the places you want to search when you are looking for scientific papers. Most of these databases have full-text PDFs for your articles, but you can also request articles that we do not have here at Salisbury through a service called Interlibrary Loan - for free!
