New Education Database

The Hatfield Library has added the Education Full Text database from the H. W. Wilson Company to its list of full text databases.

In addition to delivering the full text for hundreds of academic journals in the field of education, going back as far as 1983, Education Full Text offers a richer search experience from its predecessor, Education Index, because of the addition of abstracts that are now searchable.

Education Full Text is the ideal database to turn to for research topics on any aspect of education, ranging from nursery schools to colleges.

Catalog Upgrade

The Hatfield Library Catalog was updated over the break with some new features many users will come to find useful.

Not only is a new relevance ranking used for keyword searching, but now individual records will often contain book cover images provided by Amazon and links out to Amazon and Google Books.

These services offer additional information such as descriptions, reviews, pricing, and some or all of the book's content. Information varies by publication and service.

For questions about these or other resources, contact a librarian.
