Scientific article depot

Alright, you will usually find these in PDF format and they are documents about scorpions usually written by scientists, usually papers in peer reviewed journal, but some times a very uniqe and informative website.

If you are a university student, look through your library's website on libraries. Look for something like e-libraries. What your after is J-Stor. Most people view it as a lame research paper tool. Infact you can find entire databases of journals (such as the Journal of Arachnology) dating back to 1972 or so and find a ton of unique stuff.

Ok that was my PSA: use libraries. Now the actual point of this. I do a lot of research using said articles, my most recent collection here is about distrubition maps of scorpions. Not just regions, but exact locations where certain species have been caught.

Add to it and also make your own themed group of articles. Google scholar is a great resource. If anyone is particularly interested in something they cant find i will use my JSTOR access to see if i can find anything on it.

I got a few on a computer that I cant remember the password to. If I figure it out I'll post some up here too.

I got the devry online lbrary at my disposal.
Let me check it out

theres hundreds of articles in usually at least 3 languages, that is why some of mine are in spanish. it's good to pick a topic and find like 5 good articles related to it. im working on finding some about parthenogenesis in different species.

you can also find a lot here, even with minimal spanish skills. best of all, the majority of their articles are free:

Hmm . . . I graduate in a month; maybe I should go on an article-hunting binge before my access to articles through OSU is cut off. I've already downloaded a bunch of interesting ones I was able to turn up (and printed off a few, including a huge paper on Vaejovidae published in the '70s).
