A More Global Perspective - Two New Trials

TU Libraries is currently trialing two new databases:  GREENR and Global Issues in Context.

GREENR (Global Reference on the Environment, Energy, and Natural Resources) offers authoritative content on the development of emerging green technologies and discusses issues on the environment, sustainability and more.






Global Issues offers global perspectives on issues of international importance and current world topics in the news related to these issues.  It focuses on broad issues like war, genocide, terrorism, human rights, poverty, famine, globalization, world trade, nuclear proliferation, and global warming.  Global Issues complements nicely with another library database, CQ Global Researcher.

Both GREENR and Global Issues in Context organize their information easily, and they also provide relevant multimedia sources (video, podcasts, images, and more) - all of which can be easily extracted for use in the classroom or in a powerpoint presentation.

The trials will last until November 3rd.  Let us know if you believe this resource should be added to our eResource collection permanently.
