The Wilson Library’s subscriptions to CSA Sociological Abstracts and CSA PAIS International will end on September 30, 2008. While access to these resources are ending, new databases that include more full-text access and a large percentage of the same resources are already available through the library website.
If you are a Soc Abstracts or PAIS International user, try using SocIndex with Full-Text or NCJRS for articles on your topics.

This is a big week, not only at ULV, but in the Wilson Library! Why you ask? This week we welcomed two new librarians to the library faculty. Andre Ambrus is our new Arts & Humanities librarian, and Shelley Urbizagastegui is our new Education Librarian. The library faculty and staff are extremely excited about them joining the library team!
Another big addition is Sage e-Reference. Sage publishes fantastic encyclopedias on a wide-rage of topics. The e-Reference collection brings them one step closer to you by giving you access to some of the books online. This is a great place to look for academic resources and entries. The current books in our collection include:
- Encyclopedia of Bilingual Education
- Encyclopedia of Counseling
- Encyclopedia of Educational Law
- Encyclopedia of Global Health
- Encyclopedia of Global Warming and Climate Change
- Encyclopedia of Interpersonal Violence
- and More!
You can find SAGE e-Reference on the Library’s Encyclopedia and Dictionaries page, Subject Guides, or in the Databases by Title List.
