This fall, the university libraries is happy to be able to provide access to seven new electronic resources and daily access to both the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal. Coming in the spring, we will be adding two additional online resources for the geosciences and biomedical engineering. Together, these new subscriptions will increase our electronic materials to more than 550,000 items. In addition, we added 275 new book titles to our physical collections and ebooks.
New for the Fall
- Access Medicine – A comprehensive online medical resource that provides a complete spectrum of knowledge from the best minds in medicine. Users can find information on drugs, case studies, videos, and more.
- Business Source Premier – Business Source Premier is a comprehensive database offering access to over 2,000 periodicals, including over 1,000 scholarly journals. It covers all disciplines in business and economics, such as accounting, finance, marketing and management, and provides access to highly sought after resources, such as Harvard Business Review. While particularly invaluable for business, economics and engineering management and systems engineering faculty, its interdisciplinary nature benefits other departments and extensively increases campus access to publications and journals.
- Energy Economics Journal – Energy Economics is a premier journal specializing in energy economics and finance, covering themes such as energy exploitation, commodity markets, forecasting, environmental and climate impacts, monetary policy and more. For economics faculty, this journal is particularly valuable, but faculty in other disciplines can also benefit from its interdisciplinary approach, making it a comprehensive resource for understanding the multifaceted impacts of energy on global and local economies.
- JoVE Biology – JoVE Biology offers three separate modules. JoVE Science Education Basic Biology and Advanced Biology are libraries of videos that illustrate research protocols, concept application, and real-world examples for students taking lower- and upper-level biology courses. JoVE Biology Lab Manual provides curriculum-focused video resources with step-by-step instructions for commonly taught introductory labs.
- New York Times – Live news, investigations, opinion, photos and video by the journalists of The New York Times from more than 150 countries around the world. When the online access starts, everyone will receive an email with instructions on how to subscribe.
- Project Muse – Project Muse is a full-text interdisciplinary collection of hundreds of high-quality peer-reviewed journals in the humanities and social sciences produced by university presses, scholarly societies, research institutes, and other sources. Subjects covered include the arts, literature, history, political science, philosophy, and more.
- Sage Business Case – Sage Business Cases is a digital collection of over 6,150 peer-reviewed business case studies from more than 120 countries, designed to provide real-world scenarios across various industries and disciplines. This resource includes interdisciplinary content on subjects such as entrepreneurship, accounting, operations management, leadership, and more, and provides instruction aids such as discussion questions, learning outcomes, data sets, and teaching notes. Sage Business Cases is particularly useful for those in business, economics and engineering management and systems engineering but can extensively support faculty teaching across all disciplines.
- JSTOR Complete – JSTOR Complete provides access to full-text articles from more than 2,800 academic journals spanning over 60 disciplines in the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences and mathematics. Publication dates range back to 1665, but for many journals, recent content is not included, with most articles added three to five years after publication.
- Wall Street Journal – Online coverage of breaking news and current headlines from the US and around the world. When the online access starts everyone will receive an email with instructions on how to subscribe.
Coming in the Spring
- Nature Geoscience– A monthly multi-disciplinary journal aimed at bringing together top-quality research across the entire spectrum of the earth sciences along with relevant work in related areas. Nature Geoscience is one of the most influential journals in its field.
- Nature Biomedical Engineering– A monthly journal publishing original research, reviews and commentary in applied biomedicine and health technology. It is the top-ranking journal in biomedical engineering.
