Library Offers Trial Access to Databases

NDSU Libraries has arranged for a campus trial of two EBSCOhost databases (International Pharmaceutical Abstracts and SPORTDiscus) through March 20, 2001.

International Pharmaceutical Abstracts is produced by the American Society of Hospital Pharmacists and covers the entire spectrum of drug therapy and pharmaceutical information. Included in the databases are citations from over 750 journals published worldwide since 1970, state pharmacy journals dating from 1985, and clinical study abstracts.

SPORTDiscus is the most comprehensive database of sport and fitness information. It contains more than 500,000 records from journals, books, conference proceedings, dissertations, theses, videotapes, etc. The database is designed for anyone working in sport including coaches, sport scientists, physical educators and fitness enthusiasts.

To use either database simply click on the EBSCO link on the NDSU Libraries home page (www.lib.ndsu.nodak.edu/).
