 Database Trials      

>>> COMPUTER-SCIENCEnetBASE and ITKnowledgenetBASE

Free trials of COMPUTER-SCIENCEnetBASE and ITKnowledgenetBASE are active through 11/16/2009. Each database provides a collection of full-text books on the subject of computer science or information technology.

How to use the database:

bullet marking items in list Link to one of the databases COMPUTER-SCIENCEnetBASE or ITKnowledgenetBASE

bullet marking items in list Search for terms within all books -- using the search box on the left side of the database entry screen.

bullet marking items in list Search for terms in selected books – using Advanced Search (link is under the search box on entry screen)

bullet marking items in list Browse categories of books – using the “Browse by Category” box. Book titles for the category appear in an alphabetic list to the right

Be sure to let us know if you have any questions with the database or are unable to access it. We know that there are problems with off-campus access for some (but not all) users, and we haven’t yet identified the causes. If you aren’t able to access a book in the database from off-campus, please let us know details (computer being used – PC? Mac?; browser being used;  specific problem & point of failure)

Please let us know when an "on trial" electronic resource would be valuable to the curriculum or University community. Send suggestions or comments to the library.
