Dismal Scientist To Be Renamed as Economy.com

On April 25, Dismal Scientist will be renamed Economy.com. I’ve updated the label for the existing Dismal Scientist link on the databases page so that it now says “Economy.com (formerly Dismal Scientist)” and moved that to the E-F tab of the databases page. If your research guide has been using the Dismal Scientist database link, it should have been automatically renamed by the change I made.

For those students and faculty used to looking on the A-Z list for the link to “Dismal Scientist,” I’ve added a new temporary listing on the C-D tab of the database page for “Dismal Scientist is now called Economy.com.” That link also takes to you to the correct place.

By the end of the summer, I’ll remove this pointer listing for “Dismal Scientist is now called Economy.com.” At the end of the year, I’ll relabel the “Economy.com (formerly Dismal Scientist)” to just “Economy.com.”

If you run into any access problems, please let Mike or me know right away.
