Academic Search Premier Database of Periodicals

New Resources — Posted by Kay Benjamin @ 14:12

The library has upgraded from Academic Search Elite to Academic Search Premier. Touted as "the world's largest academic multi-disciplinary database," Premier is more than twice the size of Elite, providing access to 4,600+ periodicals, including the full text of over 3,600 peer-reviewed journals. New features include the ability to select "Academic Journals" or "Magazines" or "Newspapers" from the list of results. For a more in-depth description of Academic Search Premier go to the Ebsco web page.

This, and other new databases, are part of the SUNYConnect package which comes through SUNY consortial negotiating.

The library no longer has InfoTrac Expanded Academic, but Academic Search Premier is a much larger database, more than filling the gap left by InfoTrac.
