ELS is a resource for students, instructors, and researchers in the life sciences.

The federal government issues hundreds of environmental impact statements each year and this resource provides detailed abstracts of all of those statements while also indexing them for easy reference. EIS extracts the key issues from complex government-released environmental impact statements, converting massive documents into concise, readable abstracts.


Provides the full-text of authoritative literature reviews covering a variety of social science and science disciplines. It includes both broad and deep coverage of the life, health, and medical sciences. Can be searched by individual title, subject series, or across the entire collection.
