[OPLINLIST] Student Research Center

[Don Yarman]

Everyone--

Tucked at the very end of the latest OPLIN "Circuit" newsletter
(available at http://www.oplin.org/oplin/circuit/CircuitV2N3.pdf)
is a note about EBSCO's new Student Research Center.  I
encourage you to give this new, friendlier interface a try.

Student Research Center brings together the best homework
resources in our EBSCO collection:  TOPICsearch, Middle
Search Plus, MAS Ultra, Vocational & Career Collection,=20
Newspaper Source, and Health Source Consumer.

A link to Student Research Center appears in the complete
list at www.oplin.org/databases.  You can also access it
directly:

                       http:// www.oplin.org/student

Because SRC provides a better content interface, I will
be removing the redundant links to most of the titles listed
above.  (The exceptions are Newspaper Source and Health
Source - Consumer Edition).  Also, because Searchasaurus
provides a better interface to the elementary student
resources, I will remove the direct links to that content
as well:  Primary Search, EBSCO Animals, and the
Funk & Wagnalls Encyclopedia.  This is a step toward
creating a more manageable list of resources for the public
to choose from.

A QuickStart Guide to the new Student Research Center
will be available in the next few weeks.
