Hi All,
Hope you all had a nice fall break. I looked over the one-minute papers and there were two areas of confusion - subject databases and creating citations.
Subject Databases - The library subscribes to a number of subject databases. These databases are focused in coverage as opposed to the wide variety to topics found in general databases like Academic Search Premier and LexisNexis. Examples of a subject database include ERIC (an education database), PsycINFO (one of the definitive databases for psychological research), and ABI/INFORM (one of many business databases). For scholarly articles on a specific topic, please check the list of databases divided into subject categories http://libraries.slu.edu/databases/databases.cfm#dbname .
Creating Citations Using Academic Search Premier - Click on the link to watch a short tutorial using the citation creation tool in Academic Search Premier.
Remember - If you have any questions or need help finding resources, please contact me at allenmh@slu.edu or 314-977-3596.
Thanks and see you in the library,
Martha
