Test Drive some databases

The library has access to a few databases from Oxford until April 15th. They include:

American National Biography: "the ANB Online features nearly 18,000 biographies, thousands of illustrations, more than 80,000 hyperlinked cross-references, links to select web sites, and powerful search capabilities. Updates are published quarterly; in April, July, October, and January."

Oxford Dictionary of National Biography: "50,000 specially-written signed biographies of the men and women who shaped all aspects of the British past, from the earliest times to the end of the year 2000."

Oxford Scholarship Online - Political Science: Access to core scholarly books, Oxford "publishes outstanding original work across many of the key areas of the discipline, from Comparative Politics to Political Theory, International Relations to European Union Studies."

All of the quotes are from the publisher. Please take a look at these databases. You can either reply in the comments section of this blog or send an email to any of the librarians. Access is restricted to the Otterbein campus.
