Trial Databases Page

In order to encourage input from students, faculty, and staff, the library has just opened up a Trials page. This page will provide links and instructions for accessing databases that librarians are evaluating for possible purchase. Feedback from the Temple community is strongly encouraged. There is such a proliferation of databases and other electronic resources these days that it is important for us to get as many views and opinions as possible when considering purchases. The link to the Database Trials page can be found on the top of any of the database lists.

Once on the Database Trials page, make sure to check whether a special user name and passord is necessary, which you'll find right under the link to the trial.

So go to the Database Trials page and take a look at the new electronic resources we're considering. If you have strong feelings about any of these resources, click on the feedback link at the top of the page and tell us what you think.
