American Doctoral Dissertations

A digital version of  the only comprehensive record of dissertations accepted by U.S. universities during coverage dates. Includes those universities that did not send their dissertations to UMI.  Taken from the print index, Doctoral Dissertations Accepted by American Universities 1933-1955 and provides full page images of the original print index. May be searched by author, title, subject and university.  Beware that when Ebsco says PDF full text it is not full text of the dissertation but full text of the entry in Doctoral Dissertations Accepted by American Universities which is only a brief bibliographic record.

ProQuest Research Companion

Developed by writing instructors and librarians, this resource consists of nine Learning Modules and seven interactive tools – designed to automate the basic parts of the research process. The multimedia-based learning modules engage students to think more critically and creatively about their research, while other interactive tools help students navigate through the research process more quickly to spend more time on the research that interests them most. ProQuest Research Companion adapts to all devices –- laptops, tablets, and smartphones.

Statistical Abstracts of the World

Provides statistical data or citations to data from approximately 40 national governments’ statistical abstracts as well as compendia issued by international organizations and research firms. This resource works similarly to ProQuest Statistical Abstract of the U.S. and includes data that is not easily found elsewhere. Full text options for accessible data include PDF files, GIF formatted tables, and Excel spreadsheets. ProQuest.

CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics

Provides information on chemical and physical properties of substances through interactive tables, static pdf tables and pdf texts organized by 19 sections (Basic Constants, Units, and Conversion Factors; Symbols, Terminology, and Nomenclature; Physical Constants of Organic Compounds; Properties of the Elements and Inorganic Compounds; Thermochemistry, Electrochemistry, and Solution Chemistry; Fluid Properties; Biochemistry; Analytical Chemistry; Molecular Structure and Spectroscopy; Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics; Nuclear and Particle Physics; Properties of Solids; Polymer Properties; Geophysics, Astronomy, and Acoustics; Practical Laboratory Data; Health and Safety Information; Mathematical Tables). Browse by the Table of Contents or search using keywords or by structure or by properties. Interactive tables can be sorted or filtered.

Databib

With support from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, the libraries of Purdue and Pennsylvania State University have collaborated to create Databib: an online, annotated bibliography of research data repositories. A number of academic and research libraries are taking an active role in data curation, applying library science principles to help address the data deluge. Librarians are helping researchers formulate funder-required data plans, adapting library practice to help organize and describe research datasets, developing data collections and data repositories, performing digital preservation, and teaching data literacy. Librarians are in a good position to provide these services; unfortunately, there is currently no framework in place to support the organization and discovery of data repositories. Many funding agencies are requiring their sponsored researchers to submit their data to repositories without giving further instructions to them. What repositories are appropriate for a researcher to submit his or her data? How do potential users find appropriate data repositories and discover datasets that meet their needs? How can librarians help patrons who are looking for data find and integrate datasets into their research, learning, or teaching? Databib has been created to help address these needs for librarians, data users, data producers, publishers, and funding agencies.
