Online Libraries: NCU v. Touro

me again · Apr 25, 2006

People at this forum have written that Touro has a better selection of online libraries. Can someone post exactly what Touro offers?

Here is what NCU currently has to offer:

ProQuest - Search such databases as PsycINFO, ABI/INFORM Global, ProQuest Newspapers, and Wilson Education Abstracts. This is a great database for psychology, business, and education journal articles and abstracts. For more information on each of these databases, please see ProQuest Database Descriptions.

FirstSearch - This database is the interface for three databases: WorldCat, Wilson Select Plus, and ERIC. WorldCat searches library catalogs from around the world. Use this database if you need to search for resources in your local public library or university. Wilson Select Plus is a multi-disciplinary database that provides fulltext articles in the sciences, humanities, education and business. ERIC specializes in journal articles and reports in education. Select any one of the three databases from the "Jump to Advanced Search" drop down menu on the opening page.

Ebrary - Search Ebrary for full-text e-books in Business, Psychology, and Education. To use Ebrary you will need to download the Ebrary Reader. For more information, please carefully read system requirements on the Ebrary download screen. If you have problems accessing Ebrary, please refer to the Databases FAQs.

EBSCOhost - Search Business Source Elite and Regional Business News. The Business Source Elite business database provides full text for more than 1,125 scholarly business journals, including full text for nearly 500 peer-reviewed business publications. Regional Business News incorporates coverage of 75 business journals, newspapers and newswires from all metropolitan and rural areas within the United States (Updated Daily).

Hoover's - Financials, industry and company information, news, SEC filings, company history, and much more.

PsychiatryOnline - Collection of psychiatric references that includes books, journals, and self-assessment tools. Access the DSM-IV-TR Library and psychiatric journals, such as The American Journal of Psychiatry, Psychiatric Services, and Academic Psychiatry.

XreferPlus - an online reference library that provides access to a selection of reference books, which include encyclopedias, dictionaries, thesauri, as well as subject-specific titles covering everything from art to accountancy and literature to law.

The only one that I use is Proquest because it offers high quality professional journals, which is necessary for graduate work. What other databases offer professional journals? Does Touro offer professional journals that NCU does not? What other online resources are available to offer professional journals?
