Zoology Databases
The Colorado State University Libraries subscribes to many databases. These databases are restricted to CSU faculty, staff and students. The CSU Libraries' Databases Webpage has a full listing of these databases.
Primary Databases in Zoology
- Biological Abstracts (1969-present)
EBSCO
Biological Abstracts is one of the foremost sources of bibliographic references to the life science journal literature as well as international reviews, reports, meetings and books. This database enables researchers and students to retrieve references to vital biological and medical research findings, clinical studies, and discoveries of new organisms. Coverage is international, and includes agriculture, biochemistry, biomedicine, biotechnology, botany, ecology, microbiology, pharmacology, and zoology.
- Biological Sciences (1982-present) CSA
This interdisciplinary database offers abstracts and citations to a wide range of research in biomedicine, biotechnology, zoology and ecology, and some aspects of agriculture and veterinary science. Supporting over two dozen areas of expertise, this CSA database provides access to literature from over 6000 sources including serials, conference proceedings, technical reports, monographs and selected books and patents.
- CAB Abstracts
(1973-present) EBSCO
Primarily focuses on applied life sciences and agriculture. This is an excellent resource for animal sciences.
