“Sustainability is such an important issue that impacts all of us, and is relevant to all areas, beyond science. JSTOR Sustainability makes it really easy to see these connections through their wide selection of topics. It’s a broad database, so whatever you’re studying, you should be able to find something of use!” – Ellyse Mitchell, Liaison Librarian for SEBE
