Cell Biology: (ASCB) now offers a source for peer-reviewed, high-quality visual and written resources

The American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB) now offers a source for peer-reviewed, high-quality visual and written resources from cell biology innovators: the newly launched ASCB Image & Video Library (IVL). The IVL's growing collection of items is freely accessible on the Internet at http://cellimages.ascb.org. IVL contains digital books in PDF format, JPEG2000 images, and videos in QuickTime format that are easy to view and download. Users can discover resources by using keyword or advanced searching or browsing through the collections. The metadata and annotations provide a rich source of information associated with each item that can be used as teaching and/or study aids. And the IVL supports the Open Access concept: All images, videos, and text items are freely and easily available for educational and research purposes.
