  1. Website demonstration

  2. The Biology Image Library is: • An online subscription-based database of scientific images across 7 areas of life sciences and medical research, with over 27 000 images available.• Areas covered include: Developmental Biology, Histology & Pathology, Microbiology & Parasitology, Molecular & Cellular Biology, Neuroscience, Immunology and Plant Biology.• All independently submitted images are peer reviewed to ensure that images are of a good quality and that their descriptions are scientifically accurate.

  3. Imagine you are a lecturer looking for images for a first year module on bacteriology. Your institute is a subscriber to the Biology Image Library, so you can log in and begin browsing the library content in the area you think is most relevant

  4. Or you could do a ‘quick search’ for images in your chosen subject

  5. … your results look like this: We can order and filter results here using the ‘Display >’ drop-downs

  6. If there are more images than you require, then you can refine the search to something more specific

  7. If you are not a subscriber or not logged in, you would only see

  8. but if you are logged in and a subscriber, then you can see a fullsize view of each image

  9. Images of interest to you can be saved to our Saved items (using ‘Save checked items and go to next page >’) or they can be sent straight to a slideset (using’ Send >’)

  10. From your ‘Saved items’ you can closely compare images and move them to a slideset

  11. Slidesets are customisable, based on the slideset as a whole

  12. or individual images

  13. You can view the slideset in order to make sure you are happy with it

  14. And then download the slideset as a PowerPoint presentation

  15. The PowerPoint file you download contains all the image and credit information and you can then add more of our own work if necessary

  16. If you have problems using the site, there are instructions on viewing images, creating and downloading slidesets

  17. There is also information on how to submit images to the library

  18. And on how to subscribe to the library in the ‘About the library’ page, or you can contact us

  19. The library has a well-respected editorial board and some ed board members even contribute images themselves

  20. You can also follow the library on our Twitter account @BiologyImageLib to keep up to date with new images being uploaded

  21. Here are some examples of terms you can use in search to demonstrate a nice mixture of images Basic search terms (can be used in both quick and advanced search): ‘Malaria’ ‘Microtubule’ ‘Signaling’ (use US not UK spelling) ‘Influenza’ ‘Alzheimer’ ‘Spindle’ ‘Axons’ To demonstrate aspects of search function (best used in advanced search): ‘Bacteria AND Scanning electron*’ ‘Mitosis’ (refine search to Molecular & Cellular Biology) ‘Embryo’ (refine to search for movies only) ‘Oryza’ (display by title) ‘GFP AND confocal’ NOTE: use without quotes
