Compendex (Engineering Village)
 
Compendex contains over seven million references and abstracts taken from over 5,000 engineering journals, conferences and technical reports. Online coverage is from 1969 to the present and includes nuclear technology, bioengineering, transportation, chemical and process engineering, light and optical technology, agricultural engineering and food technology, computers and data processing, applied physics, electronics and communications, control, civil, mechanical, materials, petroleum, aerospace and automotive engineering as well as narrower subtopics within all these and other major engineering fields.



CRCnetBASE (CRC)
 

We have access to these collections through CRCnetBASE




Credo Reference (Credo Reference)
 
Credo Reference is a source that reference librarians and others use that compiles essential, factual information from specialized encyclopedias, dictionaries and other reference sources.  Credo Reference is written for the interested researcher, not the specialist. It's a great place to start your research.



DTIC Online (Defense Technical Information Center)
DTIC Online contains scientific and technical research report literature generated or sponsored by the Department of Defense. Topics range from science and engineering to the social sciences. For more access options see the DTIC Registration page.



ebrary (ebrary)
 

ebrary books are included as part of the library's collection, and may be accessed like other library electronic materials via a link in BOSUN.  Access the full-text of over 43,000 books. Create a personal bookshelf and highlight and take notes in the books. Coverage includes the subject areas of Business & Economics, Computers & IT, Education, Engineering & Technology, History & Political Science, Humanities, Interdisciplinary & Area Studies, Language, Literature & Linguistics, Law, International Relations & Public Policy, Life Sciences, Medical, Nursing & Allied Health, Physical Sciences, Psychology & Social Work, Religion, Philosophy & Classics, Sociology & Anthropology.

Notes: ebrary eBooks the library owns are accessible directly from ebrary or from a link in the BOSUN record for each. You do not need to register to have your own ebrary account: one will be automatically created for you when you click on the Login button for the first time.  Important: be aware that when you login to ebrary to use personalized features such as your own bookshelf, you will be prompted with a PROXY login screen, even if you're on campus.

ebrary’s “reader” function is not supported under many browsers, including AOL's, MSN's, Netscape 6, Opera, and others, including ISP-branded browsers. ebrary works well without it. ebrary permits printing in 30 page increments up to 60 pages per user session. To print, right click on text, select "print" and indicate the pages needed.

Note of December 17, 2010: eBrary has changed its personalized account features. Users who set up ebrary personalized accounts before this date may wish to contact ebrary tech support at support@ebrary.com to have their  previous bookshelf contents merged with a newer "SSO" bookshelf account.  In your email, please provide your previous username and your new username and ask to have your bookshelves "merged". (To see your new username, log in and look in upper right of the screen.  Your new name will appear as "Logged in as...")




Engineering Village 2 (Engineering Village 2)
 
Engineering Village 2 offers access to Compendex, CRC ENGnetBASE (Engineering Handbooks Online), and records from the United States Patent and Trademark Office for information specialists, professionals, and researchers working in the applied science technical and engineering fields.
