Exotic Forest Pest Information System for North America Forests and timber: a field guide to exotic pests and diseases Institute for Biological Invasions: "The Institute of Biological Invasions has an extensive library on biological invasions consisting of books, peer-reviewed journal reprints, unpublished government reports, "gray" literature, and newspaper articles. Much of this material is usually difficult to find; for example, many of the journal articles are from regional journals not carried by most university libraries, and are usually not included in commercially available databases. We offer here the possibility of searching our bibliographic database, which will continue to expand as we enter new references."
