November's New Books

TC Library's current library display is all about new books! 
Come by and check them out or, if you see one or seven in the list below that you'd like to get your hands on, message or email us and we will mail them to your home. If the item is checked out, sign into your account and place a hold on it.
Just in time for a long Thanksgiving read-a-thon whilst the rest of the world watches football. (Including one very football-fanaticy-librarian, who shan't be reading over the break. Nay, she shall be shouting GO DUCKS!!!)

EBSCO Criminal Justice Database

Attention law abiding citizens! We have a new database!

Starting today, you can use EBSCO Criminal Justice Abstracts with Full Text. This new database contains over 200 full text trade magazines and journals. Topics covered include criminology, corrections, investigations, forensic science, substance abuse, and probation/parole.

Twin Cities Librarians decided to review ProQuest and EBSCO's criminal justice databases. In our review, we found EBSCO's Criminal Justice Abstracts with Full Text database to be superior for several reasons:

• EBSCO has more full-text titles than ProQuest.
• EBSCO searches yield higher numbers of relevant results.
• Everyone prefers EBSCO's interface (scientific fact).

Starting today, you have access to EBSCO's Criminal Justice database from our Databases A-Z page and the Security Management, Police Science, and Public Safety Administration subject guide. We have discontinued our subscription to ProQuest Criminal Justice Periodicals.
