The librarian in me would love to create a research guide but I don’t have access to libguides like I used to in my professional life. So I’m going to start collecting and organizing information here on my blog that people can use as a resource. If another page has already collected information on a topic, such as animal welfare legislation, I’ll link to it rather than recreating the wheel. And also, if you want to see any blog posts I’ve written related to animals and my love for them, click here.
If you would like to suggest an entry, by all means, do so! There is a form at the bottom of this page you can use. Thank you!
