The Libraries now have a trial for CAB e-books published by CABI since 2000. The entire CAB collection includes over 500 titles covering the applied life sciences, with collections of titles in agriculture; animal and veterinary science; environmental life sciences; human health, food and nutrition; leisure and tourism; and plant sciences.

The trial goes through June 15th. Contact Naka Ishii, ISEL Reference Librarian, at 413-545-1656 with questions or comments.

The Libraries have added Turfgrass Information File (TGIF). A collaboration between the United States Golf Association Turfgrass Research Committee and Michigan State University Libraries, TGIF provides bibliographic references to annual research reports, conference proceedings, trade publications, scientific journals, field day programs, and newsletters pertaining to turfgrass and its maintenance.

If you would like assistance or have questions about this new database, contact Naka Ishii, library liaison to the Plant, Soil and Insect Sciences department, at 413-545-1656.
