Easy Bib trial

There is a trial to Easy Bib on the Database trials page. Please check it out. This may be our chance to get something better than EndNote Web.

Chat box in EBSCO databases

We now have a chat box in all of our EBSCO databases. Look for it in the right hand column after you make a search. You may have to maximize the area called Middle Tennessee State Chat Library (don't ask me why it has such an awkward name.)

Please let students in your classes know about this option.

Trials update 3/5/10

There is a trial for Sage Reference online until 4/2/10. We're considering the possibility of getting our Sage Reference books exclusively on this platform.
Please check it out. With more and more reference sources going online, the various platforms are an important consideration.
Also, Adam Matthew Digital extended the trial for several of their primary source products.

High School English Students

Don't forget that Literature Resource Center is one of the databases available through TEL. That fact might be of interest to visiting high school English students, who don't have off-campus access to the resources MTSU pays for.

Easiest way to get to Literature Resource Ctr in TEL is:

http://tntel.info

Click "All TEL Databases" underneath the yellow search bar

Scroll to "Literature Resrouce Center" in the alphabetical list

Economist and Arts & Humanities Index trials

There are trials on the Database Trials page to several resources from the Economist Intellegence Unit. These look like great resources for answering those tough international economics quetions. The navigation is a little tricky on the trial, look to the left to access the products.

Also, we have a trial to the Web of Science Arts & Humanities Index. This is our chance to find out what's behind door number three, but only until 3/22. Enjoy!
