Biology

This guide is designed as a starting point for finding information about biology.

Why use magazine, newspaper or scholarly journal articles?

Articles provide information on very specific, narrow topics. The Library purchases article databases so you may access articles for your topic – for free. Researchers use them when they need:

  • Magazines and Newspapers: Brief coverage of contemporary events written to all levels of readers.
  • Peer Reviewed/Scholarly Journals: Reports of research or scholarship on specific topics written by scholars to other scholars
    • What does peer-review mean?
      • The review of commercial, professional, or academic efficiency, competence, etc., by others in the same occupation -Oxford English Dictionary
