The library is open access. I would also recommend searching the http://www.biosciednet.org/portal/. This portal, which also searches MicrobeLibrary content, is a collaboration between several disciplinary societies. It is also open access. <br /><br />For journal articles regarding teaching in this area try the Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education (http://jmbe.asm.org). Again, this journal is open access.<br /><br /><br />Hope the information is useful.biologyscholarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01126189479355629194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10781944.post-65207395405270013632011-05-13T10:58:46.477-07:002011-05-13T10:58:46.477-07:00are those fully open access (i.e., in the public d...are those fully open access (i.e., in the public domain)?Jonathan Eisenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07953790938128734305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10781944.post-86854224881823550642011-05-13T10:38:51.278-07:002011-05-13T10:38:51.278-07:00A full database would be useful.
