New Library Online Resources

The Ort Library recently activated the following new electronic resources, available to FSU students, faculty and staff:

BioOne Complete:  An aggregation of more than full text 180 scholarly journals focused in the biological, ecological, and environmental sciences.
 
IPA Source:  A collection of literal translations and International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) transcriptions. The goal of IPA Source is to promote the comprehension and accurate pronunciation of foreign language texts in art song and opera in order that the singer may imbue each syllable with the appropriate emotional content.  As a specialized database, full text content is not available through OneSearch or linked via the Find It service.

JSTOR Life Sciences Collection:  A full text collection of more than 160 journals in the field sciences and health sciences.  All of the library’s JSTOR collections are bundled together under the heading JSTOR in the Databases A-Z list and Research Port.

Ulrichsweb:  Detailed information on more than 300,000 periodicals (also called serials) of all types: academic and scholarly journals, e-journals, peer-reviewed titles, popular magazines, newspapers, newsletters, and more.  As a specialized database, full text content is not available through OneSearch or linked via the Find It service.

These e-resources are available from the library’s Databases A-Z list, Research Port, and integrated into the Library’s OneSearch system (the search box on the library’s website). Full text content is also linked through the library’s Find It service, effectively connecting it to relevant citations in all of the library’s databases as well as Google Scholar. 

Please contact the Ort Library Reference Desk at 301-687-4424, libref@frostburg.edu, or chat with a librarian if you have any questions or wish to know more about these e-resources.
