Biology 180: Principles of Human Nutrition
A guide to the basic information resources on principles of human nutrition, Biology 180.
AGRICOLA (AGRICultural OnLine Access) serves as the catalog and index to the collections of the National Agricultural Library, as well as a primary public source for world-wide access to agricultural information. The database covers materials in all formats and periods, including printed works from as far back as the 15th century.
The records describe publications and resources encompassing all aspects of agriculture and allied disciplines, including animal and veterinary sciences, entomology, plant sciences, forestry, aquaculture and fisheries, farming and farming systems, agricultural economics, extension and education, food and human nutrition, and earth and environmental sciences.
Although the NAL Catalog (AGRICOLA) does not contain the text of the materials it cites, thousands of its records are linked to full-text documents online, with new links added daily. Citations only.
The NAL Catalog (AGRICOLA) is organized into two bibliographic data sets:
The NAL Online Public Access Catalog contains citations to books, audiovisuals, serials, and other materials, most of which are in the Library's collection. (The Catalog does contain some records for items not held at NAL.)
The Article Citation Database includes citations, many with abstracts, to journal articles (see Journals Indexed in AGRICOLA), book chapters, reports, and reprints, selected primarily from the materials found in the NAL Catalog.
Both data sets are updated daily with newly cataloged and indexed materials. Each may be searched separately, or the two may be searched together. The literature cited is primarily in English, but over one-third of the database comprises citations in Western European, Slavic, Asian, and African languages.
BMC has an evolving portfolio of some 300 peer-reviewed journals, sharing discoveries from research communities in science, technology, engineering and medicine. All BioMed Central research articles can be browsed, downloaded and viewed without registering, but registration is required to search the site. Includes articles from 1999 to present.
Over 200 open-access journals; articles receive peer review.
Search a collection of very specialized databases (protein, genome, nucleotide, for example) from the National Center for Biotechnology Information. Includes a PubMed search as well.
An index of journal articles about medicine, nursing, dentistry, veterinary medicine, and public health from 1950 to the present. It includes MEDLINE and some additional sources as well. Citations only.
A free full-text archive of biomedical and life sciences journal literature at the U.S. National Institutes of Health's National Library of Medicine (NIH/NLM). Includes over 350 biomedical journals.

How do I get this article that I found? Just check the duPont Library Journal Finder for the title of the journal or magazine your article comes from. It will tell you if the library has the journal or magazine. Make sure to see if we have the year you need. If we have the journal or magazine in print, it will link to the library catalog and give you a call number to help you find it on the shelves. If we have access online, it will link to the resource with the journal or magazine so that you can browse to your article or search for it.
