What's New


Databases

In October 2009 McGovern Library subscribed to the Historical New York Times database from ProQuest. The Historical New York Times (1851-2006) with Index (1851-1993) provides search capability using subject terms and topics for focused and targeted results in combination with searchable full text, full page, and article-level images from the Historical New York Times (1851-2006). This is a great improvement over using microfilm to locate articles from the New York Times.

As of Summer 2009 McGovern Library is able to provide access to most library databases from off-campus via the product EZProxy. If you are connecting to a library database from off-campus, you will be required to login with your campus network username and password. Once you are verified as a member of the DWU community you will connect to the resource. EZproxy is browser independent, i.e., any browser (Other than AOL) should work with EZproxy.

Gale Virtual Reference Library now offers a "read aloud" function. Click on the "Listen" link at the top of the page to have the article read to you.

Unfortunately, the Sioux Falls Argus Leader is no longer available in Newsbank. The library staff is reviewing options.

Over the summer new discipline-specific pages were created. These pages provide access to subject-specific databases, electronic reference books, and web resources.These pages are found at http://www.dwu.edu/library/Subject/subject.htm
