• Library homepage>Libguides>link to BIO 367>databases
• Open access: physics(peer sharing) and life sciences (availability of granted research)
• PMC Journal: information designated by govt to be available to all
• Now authors pay journal to have information published, makes open access controversial
• http://libguides.lmu.edu/BIOL367
• Google scholar ranks articles, dates will be all over the place, etc.
• MeSH terms: medical subheading
• information needed: a reference genome for species/main reference strand, usually the earliest date
