Informations
The Colorado Alliance of Research Libraries (CARL) has made its "UnCover"
article database - covering over 14,000 periodicals - available for free
searching. This database, containing more than 4,000,000 bibliographic
citations, may be useful to your immediate research, as well as keeping up
with trends by viewing the table of contents of those periodicals to which
the Library does not subscribe.
A few notes:
- This is a Fee-based service.
While the database may be searched at no charge, you may obtain
photocopies of useful articles using your credit card (MasterCard or
Visa). You will be asked if you wish an article, then to enter your
number and your mailing address. There is no requirement that you do
so. *** Please be advised that the College will not reimburse you!***
- Bear in mind that not all periodicals in the CARL database are owned
by the Millsaps Library!
Millsaps currently acquires some 800 periodicals.
Consult the online library catalog to determine if the Library
subscribes to the journal title.
- CARL offers Name, Word, and Browse searching. "Name" is roughly
the equivalent of author searching. "Word" is roughly the equivalent
of title or subject searching. "Browse" may be used to view journal
titles and their table of contents. (Type B, press Enter; Type journal
title; Select line number of journal title; Select E to examine current
issue information; Select line number to see issue contents.)
- For additional advice on searching the database please contact Mr. Jim
Parks (PARKSJF, x1071) or stop by the Library Information Services
Office during office hours (8:30 am - 5:00 pm).
