E-Books in Fast-Growing Areas of Life Sciences

The Library recently purchased the Life Sciences Colloquium published by Morgan and Claypool. The e-book collection is organized into five series: Cell Biology of Medicine, Developmental Biology, Integrated Systems Physiology, Biotechnology, and the Developing Brain.

Morgan Claypool Colloquium eBooks

This collection consists of 50- to 100-page e-books, each of which synthesizes an important research or development topic, authored by a prominent contributor to the field and providing more synthesis, analysis, and depth than typical research journal articles.

The collection's e-books are also more modular and dynamic than traditional print or digital handbooks and are ideal entry points to new areas for researchers and students.

Select titles include:

Titles allow unlimited simultaneous use and printing, and e-reserve use. They are accessible via Primo. Try a search using the keywords “morgan” and “claypool” and “life” to view a complete list of titles.
