    Access to Lexis-Nexis Academic, ICPSR, RIA Tax Library, Bibliografia de la Literatura Espanola, Teatro Espanol, and updates to Arts & Sciences Citation Index within Web of Science has ceased.
     
    Access to Anthropological Literature and International Index to Music Periodicals (IIMP) is scheduled to end December 31, 2011.

    Spring 2011:

     

    Buley Library Digital Collections include digital objects from the library's special collections and items from other partnerships. Current contents include the David C. Libbey Postcard Collection. In 1990, Emeritus Professor David C. Libbey donated over 1,400 library-related postcards to Buley Library. The subjects include books, printing and most especially, libraries. In the latter category, the New England area is particularly well represented.

    ABI/Inform Complete allows simultaneous searching of ABI/Inform Dateline, Global, and Trade & Industry.
