There are many library databases suitable for searching research literature on topics of bioenergy and biofuels. A selection of these databases is listed below with brief descriptions, dates of coverage, and links to the products themselves.
Steenbock Library congratulates faculty, researchers and affiliated staff who will continue to pursue research and innovation with the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center.
Do speak with librarians at Steenbock and Wendt libraries for assistance using these resources.
