Welcome to the BSCI 361 resource guide! It was created to help you navigate the library resources covered in the library session during class. You will find all the material I discussed in class here as well as more information should choose to go beyond what I covered. If you have any questions on the information presented here, accessing resources or conducting research, reach out to me (contact information on the left). I'm always happy to help!
For more in-depth resources in the life sciences, please see my guides in Biology, Cell Biology, and Entomology.
