Literature Criticism Online and Refworks

The UNH Library added a couple of databases this summer that may be of interest

Literature Criticism Online contains a range of modern and historical views on authors and their works across regions, eras and genres. It includes centuries of analysis, both scholarly and popular, from broadsheets, pamphlets, encyclopedias, books and periodicals. It is delivered in an format that is both accessible matches the exact look and feel of the print originals. 

Refworks, is an online research management, writing and collaboration tool, is designed to help researchers easily gather, manage, store and share all types of information, as well as generate citations and bibliographies.

If you have any questions about or need assistance for any of the Library’s databases, please don’t hesitate to let us know.

Welcome Back!

Well, after a hiatus that was much longer than I had intended, I’m back blogging about the intersection of history, research, the Library, and online resources at the University of New Hampshire. And oh, what a busy summer it has been!

You may have noticed a new look to both the Library’s homepage and online catalog. Rob Wolff has designed  a new library homepage which features both a new look and expanded functionality. It combines the familiar library site header with some new content, including search boxes for the new library catalog, course reserves, digital collections, and the library website.

The library catalog has a new, Google-like interface. It searches the same information but presents it differently. The result list is sorted by relevance; you can also sort by date or title. Flanking the results are ways to refine your search and find newest material. If you want to search with the familiar, old interface, there is a link to it on the new catalog page.
