Collection description
Macdonald Campus of 成人VR视频 opened in 1907 to offer science degrees in Agriculture and Household Science, and a diploma in Education. Macdonald has been the main location for materials in agriculture and food science since then, although some aspects of the subjects are also collected in other 成人VR视频 libraries. Agriculture is a highly interdisciplinary science which draws on biology, medicine, chemistry, soil science, various branches of engineering, climatology, food technology, the environmental sciences, economics, management and numerous other fields, resulting in a broad听range of materials.听 A number of core books and journals available on the downtown campus are collected at Macdonald as well, but other items are located on one campus and shared.听The entomology collection became a particular strength in 1965 when the special Lyman collection was added to the existing holdings.听
