Translating Science Symposium, Friday September 29

The libraries have been highlighting science journalism, science writing, and science media all week long, to promote the symposium happening tomorrow.  Take a look at the science library tumblr and the main library twitter #translatingsciencesymopsium - so many good resources to feature, one week certainly can't do justice to the abundance of great science writing available online and in print.

Here is one more recommendation that can't fail to please: The Best American Science and Nature Writing, an annual series that can be found in the science library.  Check out a volume!
