UC Merced has recently subscribed to the Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE) Neuroscience and Immunology and Infection modules.

JoVE Neuroscience presents scientific research on the brain and nervous system, as well as potential treatments for neurological diseases.  JoVE Immunology and Infection presents techniques for evaluating the biological response to pathogens from both the molecular to organismal level, as well as therapeutic agents and their efficacy in treating disease. Along with the JoVE Biology module, these new peer reviewed scientific journals provide access to videos of scientific experiments from the top laboratories around the globe, allowing scientists, educators and students to see the intricate details of cutting-edge experiments rather than read them in text articles.

Access this new content via the above links or via the Library's A-Z Database listings.

On Sunday, February 18th, from 7am to 1pm PST, the ICPSR website and all its special topic archive sites will be down for maintenance. We apologize for any inconvenience and hope this interruption will create minimal disruption to our users’ research.

Beginning on Saturday, January 27th at 7pm through Sunday, January 28th at 3am, ProQuest will be conducting maintenance to upgrade infrastructure, enhance security, and maintain reliability of its products. During this 8-hour window, some ProQuest products like ProQuest databases will be unavailable. We apologize for any inconvenience and hope this interruption will create minimal disruption to our users’ research.

In the coming weeks, current MyiLibrary content will transition to ProQuest’s Ebook Central, a new, full service ebook platform that delivers an intuitive and easy-to-use research experience. Our patrons will still have access to ebook content previously supplied through MyiLibrary, just under a new and improved Ebook Central homepage. Please note: patron bookshelves will not transfer to Ebook Central from the previous MyiLibrary platform. Once transition is complete in early 2018, patrons will need to create a new login and bookshelf for their former MyiLibrary content.
