January's Featured Resource is Academic Search Premier

Our featured resource this month is one of our largest databases, Academic Search Premier. This scholarly resource contains indexing and abstracts for more than 8,500 journals, with full text for more than 4,600 of those titles. PDF backfiles to 1975 or further are available for well over one hundred journals, and searchable cited references are provided for more than 1,000 titles. We recommend it as the best resource to begin most research projects. Additionally, you can make use of the MyEBSCOhost personalization features to save articles and citations, build lists, and share articles within a group.

November's Featured Resource -- RavenRequest

This month's featured resource is RavenRequest - a web site that allows you to create online Interlibrary Loan requests.  RavenRequest is linked from the library's front page or can be accessed directly at http://ravenrequest.franklinpierce.edu.  RavenRequest can be accessed with your FPU network username and password. You will need to create an account upon your first login.  Once you have created an account you can track your interlibrary loans (both books and articles), find out when materials have arrived or are due back, see past interlibrary loan requests, and coming soon -- pick up articles directly through RavenRequest.

Several of our databases allow users to submit interlibrary loan requests directly to us, those can also be tracked via RavenRequest.  You can copy and paste author/title/journal information from websites directly into RavenRequest, saving you further time.  Give it a try!
