Search for journals, books and more at all of the libraries in the University of California system, or worldwide.
Click the Request button to page a book to a UC Berkeley library or borrow from another library. Requests for article/chapter scans can be placed for materials held at NRLF. Requests require sign-in.
Search within the full text of scanned books. Use the "Find in a library" link (if present) or search on a title in UC Library Search to see if e-book or print versions are held by UC Berkeley.
Searches the full text of books and many journal runs on many subjects, including some from the University of California libraries. The full text of a book can be displayed only if the book is out of copyright (generally, published before 1923).
Interlibrary Borrowing Service (IBS) enables UC Berkeley students, faculty, and staff (including retired faculty and staff) to borrow materials not available through the UC Berkeley Library.
Provides access to dozens of current medical textbooks in numerous specialty areas, procedural and other videos, a differential diagnosis tool, practice guidelines, cases, patient education materials, and more.
Textbooks, images and videos for neurology and related areas. (Access Medicine Neurology)

A comprehensive overview of the occurrence, metabolism, and applications of all important biopolymer classes
This reference work treats processes for biotechnological production, isolation from organisms and modification, material properties and technical uses in areas such as chemical and food industries, medicine, pharmacy, and materials science.
Featuring relatively short entries on genetics topics written by experts in that topic, Brenner's Encyclopedia of Genetics provides an effective way to learn about any aspect of genetics, from Abortive Transduction to Zygotes.
The work provides short entries that briefly define key terms, and a guide to additional reading and relevant websites for further study. Many of the entries include figures to explain difficult concepts. Key terms in related areas such as biochemistry, cell, and molecular biology are also included, and there are entries that describe historical figures in genetics, providing insights into their careers and discoveries.

A collection of 53 full-text scholarly monographs published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press.
Includes definitions of terms from bioinformatics, biophysics, cell biology, chemistry, computational biology, genetics, immunology, mathematics, microbiology, molecular biology, pharmacology, systems biology, toxicology, and related fields.
More than 300 overview articles in 20 different subject areas including the economics of biodiversity, evolution, population issues, and theories of biodiversity.
A comprehensive survey of biodiversity across taxonomic groups and ecological regions. Covers topics such as agriculture, fisheries, forests, land-use patterns, population trends, overexploitation, climate change, and threatened, endangered and invasive species.
Covers all aspects of biochemistry, including topics relating to biochemistry, biophysics, cell biology, molecular biology, neuroscience, pharmacology and oncology.
Over 500 different articles on all aspects of biochemistry, as well as the related fields of molecular biology, cell biology, genetics, and biophysics. Includes more than 700 images in full color.
Covers the development and evolution of the immune system; molecular immunology; immune system activation; pathogens and tumors; and immune system physiology and dysfunction.
Covers all areas of neurological sciences through over 1,000 entries focused on a wide variety of topics in neurology, neurosurgery, psychiatry, and other related areas of neuroscience.
The contributing authors represent all aspects of neurology from many viewpoints and disciplines to provide a complete overview of the field. Entries are designed to be understandable without detailed background knowledge in the subject matter, and cross-referencing and suggested further reading lead the reader from a basic knowledge of the subject to more advanced understanding. The easy-to-use 'encyclopedic-dictionary' format of the Encyclopedia of the Neurological Sciences, Second Edition features alphabetic entries, extensive cross-referencing, and a thorough index for quick reference.
