Journalism: March 2008 Archives
TU Libraries now has access to Journalism Practice.
Journalism Practice is devoted to “the study and analysis of significant issues arising from journalism as a field of professional practice; relevant developments in journalism training and education, as well as the construction of a reflective curriculum for journalism; analysis of journalism practice across the distinctive but converging media platforms of magazines, newspapers, online, radio and television; and the provision of a public space for practice-led, scholarly contributions from journalists as well as academics.” All contributions are refereed anonymously by acknowledged international experts in the field.
The journal is also considered a companion to Journalism Studies, which we have access to via Communication & Mass Media Complete (2000 to 1 year ago).
Full-text articles published from 2007 to the present are currently available from this journal.

TU Libraries is currently trialing the newspaper database, PressDisplay.PressDisplay provides digital, interactive replicas of more than 450 print newspapers and magazines, from 70 countries, in 37 languages, making it an indispensable news source for anyone who not only wants multiple perspectives on the news, but also wants to see the original print layout/format.
A 'one-stop shop' for the world's most prestigious newspapers and magazines, including The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal Europe, The San Francisco Chronicle, The Daily Telegraph, and The Los Angeles Times, these publications may be viewed in their original format using a standard Web browser or through a BlackBerry, iPhone or smart mobile device.
Users can search for the last 60 days worth of newspapers by country, language, or title and also perform keyword searches. Articles may be printed, saved, or emailed for later use. Articles from many foreign language publications can be instantly translated into one of several major foreign languages.
The trial lasts until April 11th and is password-based. The password is "welcome."
Be sure to check PressDisplay out, and let me know if the Libraries should add it to its collection of eResources!
