Albin O. Kuhn Library & Gallery

Hi,

Starting July 1, 2008, UMBC library switches from Applied Science and Technology Abstract (EBSCO) to Computers and Applied Science Complete (EBSCO). They are identical databases, but CASC has over 500 journals that are full-text.

Please let us know what you think. Thanks!

Hi,

The library no longer subscribes to Credo Reference (used to be "Xrefer Plus"). Oxford Reference Online ( http://www.oxfordreference.com/) is now the replacement.

Any feedback is welcome.

Thanks,
June

Users of Project MUSE articles may have noticed an additional feature - "clickable" subject headings for each article, allowing fast and easyconnections to related content in Project MUSE. Built upon the rich controlled vocabulary classification of all MUSE articles and reviews with
Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) , this new functionality quickly connects scholars to
additional relevant content to enhance their research.

FYI

Two databases from ABC-CLIO (America: History and Life & Historical Abstracts) have been moved under Ebsco now.

FYI

Anthropology Plus is now moved under OCLC FirstSearch.

FYI - Access to this database has changed from OCLC to Gale. The appearance has changed, but the content remains the same.

Only the name has changed. Credo Reference still provides access to 100 general reference titles, covering the spectrum from arts, business, biography, geography, history, language & linguistics, social sciences, science and technology, law, literature. Now includes Britannica and other encyclopedias.
