Sage E-Reference Online

If you haven't explored the library's e-reference collection from Sage Publishing, you might want to browse the collection. You can view e-books by subject or you can link to an A-Z list of all the books in the collection. You can also perform keyword or advanced searches. Go the library's web page at http://www.gram.edu/library and click on Electronic Databases. Scroll down to Sage E-Reference.

Biotext Search Engine

This has been added to our electronic resources list. Developed as part of the Biotext Project at the University of California at Berkeley, it is a scientific research tool that retrieves full-text articles from open access journals.

TigerNet - New Link

TigerNet (the library's intranet) now has a link on the main page for the new African-American electronic resources that the library purchased with Title III funds. This is a good starting point for your research.

ProQuest Databases

We no longer have access to some of the ProQuest databases. The money in our library budget was removed during the spring semester, so we were not able to pay for renewals that came due after a certain date. The library no longer has control of the database purchases.

Ingenta

The library no longer has access to Ingenta. Most materials that were on Ingenta can now be accessed via InterLibrary Loan.

Adobe Acrobat

You may have noticed that many articles are available now in this format. If you have trouble bringing up an article, check to be sure you have the latest update for your Adobe Acrobat software. Articles should load fairly quickly, unless you have an older computer. If you are off-campus, loading time will vary according to your Internet Service Provider's connection speed.
