NCSU Libraries provides access to the resources you need to prepare for veterinary board examinations and veterinary technician specialty exams. See the lists below for links to pages for each board or specialty outlining the required reading resources, linking to what is available at NC State University Libraries, and connecting you back to the board website for the latest updates.
Note about links to NCSU Libraries' catalog: For books, the title is linked to the e-book wherever possible. Journals are linked to their information page that has links to both electronic access and catalog listings when both are available or just to their catalog page if the journal is only available in print.
