EDIS / ASK IFAS Resources

The EDIS/Ask IFAS site is designed to work in a system with two companion resources: the EDIS journal site (ISSN 2576-0009) for management of peer review and for ongoing access to our publications as historical records, and an administrative dashboard for internal users to use for reporting and management activities.

Find a Publication

Ask IFAS is the public facing website for EDIS, offering a curated collection of our currently supported peer-reviewed articles in HTML and PDF format, discoverable through search or through a network of topic, expert, collection, and unit pages.

If a publication is no longer supported, it can probably be found in the archives of the EDIS journal.

Older publications and digitized Extension publications that were never on EDIS may also be found in the UF Digital Collection's Cooperative Extension Archives.
