Welcome to the Geology guide!
This guide provides resources that may be useful to students enrolled in ACC Geology classes, or any student interested in resources related to geology. The tabs above will guide you to different types of resources.
Apps (little software applications) allow you to customize your tablet to do the things you like to do. Some of the apps listed are free, while others are fee-based. Additionally, some apps are initially free, and then require in-app purchases if more features and functionality are desired. Listed, you will find some app recommendations we have come up with through trial, error, and our own experiences.
ACC Library Services does not endorse any fee-based apps nor it is liable for reimbursement of any apps paid for by patrons.
