Forestry

The National Forest Service Library provides access to electronic journals and bibliographic databases, current literature alerting, reference, and interlibrary loan services to support the needs of Forest Service employees. Note that most documents may not be accessible to the general public, but it is a great database to find relevant information.

The U.S. Forest service manages and protects 154 national forests and 20 grasslands in 43 states and Puerto Rico. The repository contains U.S. Forest Service documents, reports, photographs, and audio files.

PubAg is a portal to USDA-authored and other highly relevant agricultural research. At launch, it delivers over 42,709 full-text journal articles by USDA staff and includes nearly 1,346,186 citations. The Library will add about 20,000 citations each month.
