Cowles Library Drake University

Drake University has a unique opportunity to test out some new functions that NewsBank has added!

"NewsBank, inc. has recently developed several hundred new newspaper titles from across the United States at both the large metro and small local level. Also, new content types such as blogs and transcripts have been added to NewsBank’s vault. This collection will have over 3,000 newspapers, newswires, news transcripts and blogs from around the world."

All new content is available by exploring the Access World News link at the top of the page.

Also available is a function which will allow students, faculty and staff to set up their own personal accounts so that they can save, organize and maintain an ongoing archive of their research. (See Personal Accounts in the upper right corner)

Please have fun with these features! They are only around for a limited time...ending June 20, 2008.

If you have any specific comments about the new content, feel free to fill out the Evaluation Form on the Trial Databases page.
