Compiled by the librarians at the Fisheries-Oceanography
Library, University of Washington. This is not an exhaustive list but rather
a starting point. If you need help finding information, ask a librarian for
assistance.
(Note: The UW
Libraries Catalog and NTIS on the Web
are available to all. Only UW-affiliated users can access the other
databases.)
UW LIBRARIES
CATALOG The Libraries Catalog includes the book and journal holdings
of all of the University of Washington Libraries collections. You can search
for materials by title words, author names, subject headings, and keywords.
Remember: the catalog will tell you if we own a journal but not about the
contents of the journal. The Catalog is NOT the database to use to identify
journal articles.
AQUATIC

4500 journals worldwide covering all aspects of marine, freshwater and brackish
water environments. Also, includes technical reports and conference papers.

GEOBASEAn index to the international literature of geography, ecology, earth
science and marine science. Current coverage includes articles from 3000 journals as well as books,
maps, etc. Updated quarterly.
NTIS, 1964 + Indexes and abstracts U.S. Government-sponsored research,development,
and engineering reports and analyses distributed by the National
Technical Information Service. Includes NOAA technical reports.
NTIS is also available for free on the
Web covering the years 1990 to the present, usually without abstracts.
