General Bio Lab Home Page

When you are researching start at the library. They have a great assortment of journals on a variety of subjects. In addition they have a great database. However, sometimes you can only preview abstracts. You need the whole article for your current event. Remember just because an article is on the database does not make it relevant to your subject.

This is an excellent source of information. You need a password to enter the databases.

The OCC library has a number of science databases and links from the library page. You do need passwords for these sources. You can get the passwords for these resources when you are issued a library card. You can get a library card by going to the library once you have registered. Make sure you do this early in the semester!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*Go to online library

*Scroll down to the example:

health and medicine databases

*Click on the name of the database.

*You can also click on the Access Science database at the top of the online library screen. It also requests a topic.

Many of these sites have journal articles, summaries, diagrams, quizzes, and case studies that can be a great help. If you find any other interesting biology sites please tell me about them.

This search engine is very easy to use. If you look under graphics you can pick up course material from a number of university. Just give it a subject, pick the graphic that looks interesting, and than click on the site under the graphic. (If you look for web sites you can pick up some irrelevant sites)

Tries to separate hype from real science.
