The coming
of fall carries with it a certain anticipation of newness, of difference from
what has gone before. From new fall
fashions, to a new football season, to the unveiling of new television programs,
to a new school year, fall brings a feeling of freshness, a revived desire for
engagement, perhaps even the hope of
improvement.
No less so
in our library where, after a summer of mostly behind the scenes activity, a bouquet
of new features, products, and services stand ready to add freshness and, we
hope, improvement to the resources we offer and how the library connects you,
the users, with the material you need.
Here, in brief, is what’s new for fall:
- New
Connectivity – Connecting to all of our most frequently
used electronic resources from off campus can now be done without going through
HomeLab. The new method is quick, requires no special set-up, and preserves
access to your destop, email, printer, etc.
-
New
Look to the ATLA
Religion Database – A new vendor brings a fresh look and
improved search functionality to our primary index of religious/theological
literature.
-
New
Full Text Resources – A cornucopia of online content
§
iPreach
– a
bundle of biblical dictionaries, commentaries, exegetical guides
§
Oxford Biblical Studies Online –
six English study Bibles with introductions, textual notes, maps, and more
§
Oxford
Dictionaries & Encyclopedias – A host of online
in-depth resources, paralleling our print reference volumes
§
CAMIO – an art image database
representing works of art from museums around the world (requires HomeLab)
- New
Databases – extending our reach in the social sciences and human
services
§
Family
& Society Studies Worldwide
§ Child Development & Adolescent Studies
Enjoy the fall, and our new fall line!

The loans seem to be important for people, which are willing to start their own business. In fact, this is not very hard to get a short term loan.
