Three New GALILEO Databases: If you’ve been dying to know more about primates, we can help. A new GALILEO database is All the World’s Primates. Two other new databases are The Chicago Manual of Style & Encyclopedia of Major Marketing Campaigns. Learn more about these, including getting a stable url to which you can link by visiting the GALILEO @ UGA link and searching by name.
Government Websites & the Shutdown: Oh, this Shutdown…. It’s closed government websites which you may have need of. Here’s a link to a post on the Libraries’ blog about what’s closed. ERIC at the .gov site is closed, but you can still access MOST of ERIC’s materials in the EBSCO version we host in GALILEO. Access to ERIC documents (the EDs, not the EJs in the citation information) may be limited. The Libraries kept the microfiche EDs from 1966—2004 and those are available in the basement of the Main Library.
Classroom Visits & More: The semester is in full swing and Nadine Cohen & Carla Wilson Buss are still available to visit classes and to meet with individuals for research assistance. Ask for help. That’s what we do.
