Databases for Animal Alternatives and Welfare
This guide identifies databases relevant to animal testing alternatives and related areas. For additional assistance with specific searches, please contact the Science Libraries (x82427) or send an email to sciref@andrew.cmu.edu.When you find a citation for an article, check the library catalog (Cameo) to see if Carnegie Mellon owns that journal or conference proceedings. If Carnegie Mellon does not own the item, you can use interlibrary loan to have the materials sent to you.
