Journals licensed by the library
Service alert -- To CMRC investigators:
Do you wish to retrieve the most up-to-date references available for a subject area on a regular basis? If so, I can establish a profile using the subject information and keywords you provide, and you will receive references to journal articles (and other materials if needed) in selected databases. I perform the searches on a monthly basis. You may choose to receive printed citations or a file delivered as an email attachment. If the results you receive are irrelevant to the topic of interest, I will work with you to find a solution. Of course, you can cancel the service at any time. Be aware that the profile need not match your current area(s) of research, but can include any subject(s) for which current literature is needed.
Please call, email or visit the library with questions. See below (under Services) to download the request form.
Cold Spring Harbor Protocols Online, which contains over 600 methods in molecular and cell biology, is available to CMRC and CMH personnel who are on campus.
Visit the Library Digital Bulletin Board often for new papers by CMRC authors.
Visit the Databases, Information and Links pages for web-based resources (most available for free).

To encourage reading for fun, the library has started a book exchange program called Read-cycle. Bring some books from your personal collection so that others will have the chance to read them. Pick up a book while you are in the library -- free!
Visit http://read-cycle.blogspot.com/ for postings of the latest books available.
