Well, we can’t help you with your freezer or a ticket, but if you’re looking for information about fish, moose, or ecotourism, ARLIS has you covered with databases you can use right here in the building.  ARLIS is one of UAA’s partner libraries and it subscribes to:

• Fish & Fisheries Worldwide, which is a collection of databases that covers ichthyology, fisheries, and related aspects of aquaculture
• Wildlife & Ecology Studies Worldwide is the world’s largest index to wildlife literature including management, habitat, behavior, economics, diseases, ecotourism, and much more

Both databases can be used on the ARLIS library computers Monday–Friday (8–5). An ARLIS reference librarian will be happy to help if you need assistance. Clicking on the links above will give you a bit more information about the databases, but remember that to search them you’ll need to use the ARLIS computers in person.

Did you know April is Mathematics Awareness Month?

Celebrate by reading a biography of a famous mathematician (can you name one?) or a book on the history of mathematics.  The Consortium Library has a plethora of books and other resources on all things math, as well as a collection of study DVDs for learning algebra, geometry, calculus, and much more.

Here’s a sample.
