Pollen

Red cars look orange, white cars look yellow, black cars look golden. The pollen is settling on everything, changing the color of our world. Why?

Garden, Landscape & Horticulture Index provides access to articles about gardens and plants, including topics such as horticulture, botany, garden and landscape design & history, ecology, plant and garden conservation, garden management, and horticultural therapy. A highlight of the database is its focus on environmentally sustainable horticultural and design practices. This index and abstract product is designed for gardening enthusiasts, professionals, and students of horticulture and of garden and landscape design & history. It covers more than 300 core serial titles that include general gardening titles of national, international, and regional interest, and titles devoted to specialty gardens and plant groups.

The Garden, Landscape & Horticulture Index is not just an index. One can limit the search to full text. There are plenty of articles to be found. A search for 'pollen' pulled up 1500+ articles. Limiting the search to 'pollen management' retrieved 8 article. Admittedly, those eight articles were aimed at the professional horticulturist not the average urban pollen sufferer.

If you neglect to click Full text and find the perfect article but all you can access is the abstract. You may borrow the article from another library by clicking on the purple Find It button. Select the OCLC World Cat link. Click on the hyperlink for the title. Look to the bottom right in teeny tiny print for the 'Borrow/Obtain a copy' link. Fill in the request form. Because you're logged into GALILEO through CTC, the article will be sent to the Marietta campus. You may request that it be sent to your home campus by noting in the comments box where you'd like the article delivered.

Hopefully the rains will come soon to clear the skies.
