Reliable Web Pages

Google Image Search

Search Google Images to find some great illustrations of species and their biomes.

 

Google Scholar

Google Scholar searches many academic journals and books that are freely available online. You will still need to search the library's subscription databases, which contain many sources that are not available for free.
Suggested keyword searches
: name of animal or plant ("honeybee" or "birch tree"); state or region ("New England" or "northeast"); habitat ("forest," "wetlands," etc.). To narrow down your search, try combining terms (for example, "honeybee" and "New England")
