The library has this terrific database called Credo Reference. Credo Reference is a general reference source for students and faculty offering more than 475 highly-regarded titles from over 70 publishers. That’s 475 full text reference books online. Credo covers every major subject from the world's best publishers of reference.
We have it, but is it being used? Yes! In March, students had consulted 81 books in the Credo Reference database. So far in April students have used 76 Credo Reference books.
What are some of the searches from March and April?
CIA World Fact book: Compared individual countries or compare statistics across all countries
History Paper: used the chronologies of world history from multiplie sources
Medical Images: used Color Atlas of Human Anatomy
Art images: explored a theme such as “impressionist river” paintings in Bridgeman Art Library with 15,000 art images
See for yourself. Look at the image of River Banks at Saint-Mammes.
(I saw this painting at the Hermitage in St. Petersburg, Russia.)
