STEM Summer 2022: Soil: Home / Research Guides

Welcome to the Research Guide for WCC and Mercy College students in the STEM Scholars Summer Academy!

This guide is a collaboration between the faculty of both schools and introduces a selection of materials to help you locate sources about soil and plants. The tabs at the top will direct you to books, databases, websites, organizations, articles, and other resources to get you started on your research.

This research guide is not a comprehensive list of materials and does not represent ALL of the resources available at WCC or Mercy. We hope that you will contact us so we may give you more directed assistance if you need it.

If you have questions about this guide, please get in touch with any of the following people:

• Margaret Eiden - WCC, Professor of Biology
• Judith Bukofser -  WCC, Professor of Biology
• Rebecca Steere - WCC, Librarian / Liaison Program Coordinator
• Susan Gaskin-Noel - Mercy College, Assistant Professor / Librarian
