eBooks added, Feb. 2013

We have a 30-day trial to all the ebooks on University Press Scholarship Online through March 29, 2013. This platform aggregates several university presses, such as Oxford University Press, California University Press and University of Chicago Press. You can browse the Biology eBooks. Note: The collections for Neurosciences, Social Work and Public Health and Epidemiology are already purchased, so access to those sections will continue after the trial is over. Access will be available on campus. Please contact Ruth Lewis with your comments or if you want to use this trial from off campus.
