As you may remember, the Sage Collections went away in July. We have updated our Serials listing and so I have removed the individuals Sage collections from our list of databases, leaving just a Sage journals entry. We now have access to over 500 titles: titles that had been included in our collections have access back to v.1, new titles have access back to 1999.

We have a trial until October 15 to Sage Reference online. This includes all their available electronic handbooks and encyclopedias.
Comments and discussions appreciated.
Trial to 2 Gale resources
We have 2 trials to Gale resources sponsored by CUNY/ERAC. They are both on the database page, but are available on campus only until the end of the year.

I would appreciate comments and discussions on these 2 databases.
Trials to various Art databases from Wilson
We have a trial sponsored by ERAC to 3 Wilson art databases:

We will be discussing them at our October 1 meeting so if you have comments please do share them.
Feel free to pass these trials along to faculty and students as well – the only caveat is that they are only available on campus.
New database: Property Shark
Thanks for Prof. John Goering we have access to Property Shark which has real estate data.
It is available only at 2 of the reference computers, and needs a login, which is in the wiki.
His students have been told to come to the reference desk to use the database.
