ScienceSource Collection Understand Complex Science Concepts

A Comprehensive Science Resource Includes information on Botany Zoology Biology Physics Chemistry Environment Astronomy Medicine Health Earth Sciences Mathematics Technology

ScienceSource Collection includes … Biology Digest ( >) Physical Sciences Digest ( >) Plexus Encyclopedia Biographies of Scientists Articles on current science/health issues

Articles Make scientific and medical data easily understood and usable Based on material in science and medical publications Retain important concepts from original source Written by subject specialists

Plexus Encyclopedia of Medicine, Science & Technology Background information on –Diseases-Appendicitis, Multiple Sclerosis –Environment-Solar Wind, Sunspots –Mammals-Bats, Platypus –Physics-Friction, Motion, Nuclear Fusion “backgrounder” in the title for identification

Biographies of Scientists Biographical and historical information –580BC (Pythagoras) forward 200 entries –Astronomers (Galileo-1564) –Botanists (Linnaeus-1707) –Chemists (Curie-1867) –Geneticists (Mendel-1822) –Mathematicians (Fibonacci-1170) –Physicists (Newton-1642) “backgrounder” in the title for identification

Basic Search Screen Type in a search term Sort results Identify time period Search by Lexile/Reading level Limit to portion of product Select a science area Click on a set topic

Type in NASA and shuttle Retrieve articles on topic View article

More Search Options Screen For more precise results Combine search terms with and, or, but, nor Search by Headline/Title Find backgrounder information by typing this word and your search term in the headline/title field
