University Libraries, including the Wegner Library, now have access to all of the JoVE journal content except for the engineering section.  Thanks to some additional funding made available by the BRIN grant, University Libraries was able to expand our Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE) coverage for the next 3 years.

If you are not familiar with JoVE:
The Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE) is a peer reviewed, PubMed indexed journal.  JoVE publishes experimental techniques in a visual, video format with detailed text protocols to increase scientific reproducibility and productivity.  Coverage includes Biology, Biochemistry, Bioengineering, Cancer Research, Chemistry, Developmental Biology, the Environment, Genetics, and Immunology and Infection.
