The library has just subscribed to a neat new product, CSA Illustrata: Natural Sciences .
It searches for tables, graphs, maps, images, etc. in the scholarly literature. For example, if you are looking for spectra, protein sequences and structures, chemical structures, mechanisms, and other visuals, you can use Illustrata.
The database is not in our Research Databases list yet, but it should be within the next month or so. Use this link in the meantime:
