Two librarians from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign wrote this handbook as a resource list for large research libraries. It is divided by subject matter (genetics, botany, etc.) and then by type of work (periodicals, encyclopedias, etc.) A must-have source for beginning or strengthening any biology collection.

A revised and expanded reference that acquaints students new to the literature of biology with important primary and secondary resources of the field that can be found in large research libraries, emphasizing current materials in the English language. All main fields of the biological sciences are covered, but applied areas are not included. The arrangement is by broad subject chapters, which are subdivided by form of material. Entries are annotated only once, according to their primary focus, and cross-referenced elsewhere as appropriate. Every textbook listed is recommended, although not all of them are annotated.
