The Patrick Power Library is very pleased to announce that it now subscribes to Taylor & Francis, one of the world’s leading journal databases. Members of the Saint Mary’s community will be able to access the content in more than 1,400 scholarly journals in the social sciences and humanities, all via the library’s homepage.   A link to Taylor & Francis can be found in the Databases A-Z list .   And because all of its periodicals are indexed in the Novanet search box (“Start Your Research Here”), you can also retrieve articles that way as well. As with any new database, users should take some time to familiarize themselves with Taylor & Francis and discover all it has to offer.   We believe it will prove a great boon to our University’s research capacity and we’re glad to have this opportunity to add it to our growing library of outstanding online resources.

The Library’s Faculty Author Series continues next week, with another of our colleagues dropping by to share the results of their research with us.  Dr. Albert Mills, from the Department of Management, will be here to talk about his latest book, Insights and Research on the Study of Gender and Intersectionality in International Airline Cultures. That’s Wednesday, February 1 at 1 o’clock in Room LI135. Saint Mary's students and staff as well as members of the community are all welcome to join us.
