The Shapiro Science Library's collection includes information in print and electronic formats on many species. This webpage and its print version offer a sample of available resources on various species that can be found in select databases and websites. At this time, species covered are from the animal or plant kingdom only. Material is arranged in 3 types of access: Electronic resources (i.e. indexes and databases), Web resources, Print Reference resources (e.g. directories, dictionaries).
For information on how to search for species information in Mirlyn or online, try one or more of the following resources:
Science Library handouts . Many of the Science Library handouts can now be found online. Some print versions are located on the 3rd floor of the Science Library.
Mirlyn . Mirlyn is U of M's online catalog. Mirlyn Guides contain information on how to search Mirlyn for information. Both print and online versions are available. Online versions can be found here .
Science Research Guide . SRG is a general guide to getting started in library research in the sciences. It is designed to help students in the sciences sort through any confusion about library resources. SRG is a complement to the Undergraduate Library's module, SearchPath.
SearchPath . A tutorial on how to use library resources. Although the primary audience is the undergraduate student, SearchPath contains a nice overview of library services and how to use them.
Science Research Consultation . One-on-one (free) research consultation at the Science Library. By appointment or drop-in.
