More Specialized Resources
These sources are more focused and less general.
- Handbook of Chemistry and PhysicsThis source focuses mostly on chemistry and physics but some of its content should be useful for a biology student as well.
- AgricolaMaterial from the Department of Agriculture's National Agriculture Library. Most of the focus is obviously farming but there is material on environmental or ecosystem impacts, effects of pollutants, and so forth.
