Announcing Credo Reference as a new a multidisciplinary collection of online reference resources. Funded by USF Sarasota/Manatee, the content in Credo is selected by USF librarians.

Credo Reference provides access to one hundred reference resources, such as encyclopedias, dictionaries, and biographical sources chosen to meet a broad range of research needs. Metasearching allows the user to search across all content in the current collection. Each title has an information title page with a description, and a search box for the individual title, so searching can be done at a more precise level. Concept maps are available, as are “gadgets” offering quick look ups for definitions, locations, conversions, quotations and people. Results can be exported into RefWorks, EndNote, ProCite or Reference Manager. Users can also email the abstract or the full-text, save to a file or clipboard, or choose to print. Citation styles offered are APA, MLA, Harvard and Chicago.

Our apologies! Here are the items newly arrived at the USF Polytechnic Library during the month of September and October. Yes, we inadvertently skipped a month in the flurry of activity in the Library. So this list will combine items receive during both.

As always, new circulating books and children’s books are found in the “New books” stacks in the Group Study area and can be checked out; the new reference, DVD titles and Special Collection items are immediately being shelved in their respective stacks.

Of particular interest are our first print issues of Psychology Today as well as the volume RoboCup 2008 : Robot Soccer World Cup XII co-edited by faculty member Dr. Alfredo Weitzenfeld. Finally, we receive the latest editions of the Florida teacher certification examinations test self-study guides. They’re in their own section in this list.

Wanting a quick way to know what is going on in scientific fields, or simply having a few minutes to kill and looking for a quick, informative read? The USF Poly Library is now receiving two popular scientific magazines: Psychology Todayand Scientific American.

They can be found with the other print journals and periodicals at the back of the library, shelved in alphabetical order.

Here are the items newly arrived at the USF Polytechnic Library during the month of August. As always, new circulating books and children’s books are found in the “New books” stacks in the Group Study area and can be checked out; the new reference and DVD titles are being immediately shelved in their respective stacks.

To note, we received many new titles as well as donations. Of particular interest are the 6th edition of the APA Publication Manual (reference), a book showcasing architect Santiago Calatrava’s work (circulating) and our first print issue of Scientific American (top choice in a faculty survey on scientific magazines. We look forward our first issue of Psychology Today, second choice in the survey.)

To further scholarship in many disciplines, the USF Libraries recently purchased the online version of the American Periodicals Series.

American Periodicals Series Online features over 1,100 periodicals spanning nearly 200 years from colonial times to the advent of American involvement in World War II. Containing more than seven million digitized page images, titles range from America’s first scientific journal to popular magazines.

The publications in this collection cover three broad periods:

  • The years between 1740 and 1800 that offer insight in America’s transition from a British colony to an independent nation with eighty-nine published journals;
  • The first sixty years of the nineteenth century that showcase the golden age of American periodicals where most great literary works of the nineteenth century appeared in a magazine with more than nine hundred titles; and
  • The Civil War (1861-1865) and Reconstruction (1865-1877) period that reflect the nation in turmoil and growth, the settling of the West, and the emergence of modern America with more than nine hundred titles.

Because the database contains digitized images of periodical pages, researchers can see all of the original typography, drawings, graphic elements, and article layouts exactly as they were originally published. American Periodical Series may prove useful in the following disciplines: history, arts, social sciences, humanities, statistics, medicine, sciences, and government and international affairs.

For these resources and other library databases, visit http://poly.usf.edu/library.xml. Click on “Search the Databases” (MetaLib) to begin.

June is GLBT Pride month. We have published our USFP Library 2009 list of resources listing books, children’s books, electronic journals and databases.

Here are the items newly arrived at the USF Polytechnic Library during the month of May. As always, new circulating books are found in the “New books” stacks in the Group Study area; the new reference titles are being immediately shelved in their respective stacks.

Of note, we have continued receiving the 2008 award-winning Children’s Books as well as a few books from donations, notably from Dr. Preston Mercer. Thank you!

Databases

Announcing the recent acquisition of a suite of International Monetary Fund databases.

International Financial Statistics Online is a standard source of international statistics on all aspects of international and domestic finance. It reports, for most countries of the world, current data needed in the analysis of problems of international payments and of inflation and deflation, i.e., data on exchange rates, international liquidity, international banking, money and banking, interest rates, prices, production, international transactions, government accounts, and national accounts. This database contains time series data from 1948 and contains approximately 32,000 time series covering more than 200 countries. One can browse the database, select series of interest, and display and save the selected series in a spreadsheet format, such as Microsoft Excel.

The Direction of Trade Statistics (DOTS) present, for most member countries of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), current figures on the value of exports and imports with the most important trading partners, providing current figures for about 158 countries. Smaller countries appear in the area and world tables. The information on exports and imports by trading partners that countries report to the IMF varies in terms of frequency and currency. Reported data, including total imports and exports reported for publication in the IMF International Financial Statistics (IFS), are the basis of all estimates in DOTS. The entire DOTS database is continuously supplemented with estimates.

Balance of Payments Statistics summarizes, for a specific period, the economic transactions of an economy with the rest of the world. It reports total goods, services, factor income, and current transfers an economy receives from or provides to the rest of the world. The database contains time series data from 1948 and approximately 100,000 time series covering more than 170 countries and areas.

For these databases and other library resources visit http://www.poly.usf.edu/library. Click on Databases by “Search the databases” to begin.

The USF Libraries have acquired the multidisciplinary database SourceOECD.

SourceOECD is an online library of statistical databases, books, and periodicals from OECD, the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development. The OECD, a membership of 30 countries, is one of the world’s largest publishers in the fields of economics and public policy. SourceOECD is comprised of over 1,800 online books with unrestricted access grouped in 24 themes, 24 periodicals, 3 reference titles, and 26 OECD statistical databases, all in full text. Themed groupings include: Education, Energy, Emerging Economies, Environment & Sustainable Development, Finance and Investment, Science, Social Issues, Urban and Regional Development, Transportation and more. Twenty-six statistical databases from the OECD are presented enabling users to download data and build their own tables, in real time. Users can also build cross-database tables. OECD has recently launched OECD.Stat that allows searches across the various OECD databases. It is now in a beta test until September 2008. The USF Libraries hold a subscription to all OECD online publications with the exception of the third-party IEA Statistics.

To access it, search MetaLib by using the “Search the Databases” link on the library’s main page.

Business students and faculty will find the DataStream Advance database from Thomson on computer 1115-42 in the Group Study area of the Library.

Because of licensing conditions and the necessity for client software installation, this database is not available through MetaLib. The USF Lakeland has one seat for access. Because of this, priority for computer 1115-42 will be given to those wishing to use the database.

Here is a bit more information about the database:

Thomson Datastream is the most respected historical financial numerical database, covering an unparalleled breadth of financial instruments, equity and fixed-income securities and indicators for over 175 countries and 60 markets worldwide.

Here are the new materials that have arrived at the USFL Library during the month of January. As always, new circulating books and Children’s books are put in the New Books shelves in the Study Group area. Reference books, A/V materials and new journals are shelved immediately in their respective areas.

To note for the parents among us and those specializing in education, we received our 2007 award-winning and notable children’s books.

Here are the books that have arrived at the USFL Library during the month of December. As always, new circulating books and Children’s books are put in the New Books shelves in the Study Group area. Reference books are shelved immediately in the Reference area.

Following the news concerning the Polk County School Board and the debate around evolution vs. intelligent design, the Library has acquired a few titles on the topic. Others are on order. There are other titles as well in the USF Libraries that can borrowed through inter-library loan. The links below will bring you to the library catalog.
