Along with the newly added JoVE Neuroscience and JoVE Immunology and Infection, UC Merced has recently subscribed to the Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE) Engineering module.
JoVE Engineering covers a wide range of experimental and instrumental techniques used in the different fields of mechanical, chemical, electrical and materials engineering. As with all JoVE content, this new peer reviewed scientific journal provides 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.
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.

An ongoing effort to collect, digitally preserve and share 100 years of historical records by the UC Cooperative Extension (UCCE) has earned the UC Merced Library a more than $300,000 grant.
“We’re extremely proud to be able to further the work already begun on the UCCE project,” UC Merced Chancellor Dorothy Leland said. “Our library is producing a collection that demonstrates the organization’s lasting effects on the state, the work it has done in the past and its potential for the future.”
The work is especially relevant to the San Joaquin Valley, said Emily Lin, the UC Merced Library’s head of Digital Curation and Scholarship.
“We have a lot of archives and historic records based around urban centers, but we haven’t been collecting the records of rural California in any systematic way,” she said. “But rural California has had an incredible influence on the state’s history. California was transformed by agriculture over the past century.”
The Archivist of the United States approved the $308,900 grant from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission for “A Century of Impact: Documenting the Work of the Cooperative Extension in California's Counties.” The three-year project will begin in the summer after Lin and others hire a group of undergraduate students to help with the work. Additionally, the project will be part of an informational booth at the World Ag Expo in February in Tulare — UC Merced’s first appearance at the exposition, which draws more than 100,000 people from all over the world.
