Changes to Education related databases

Over the next few weeks we will be releasing information regarding changes to the databases that Grasselli Library provides to John Carroll University. If you have any questions, please contact the library liaison in the appropriate subject area or call the Reference Desk (x4234).

Grasselli Library, along with the other OhioLINK members, now has access to Education Research Complete, offering the largest and most complete collection of full text education journals, covering areas of curriculum instruction as well as administration, policy, funding, and related social issues. This replaces Education Abstracts and incorporates Ebsco’s Professional Development Collection. In addition, Grasselli now offers access to SPORTDiscus, dealing with all aspects of sports: medicine, law, management, and education. These changes, coupled with our existing database subscriptions, will increase the amount of material available to faculty and students in support of John Carroll’s curricular needs.
