CRCnetBASE Ebooks: Trial Access

Leave a Comment

Dalhousie Libraries have arranged trial access to CRCnetBASE. CRCnetBASE is made up of over 6000 online books (full text handbooks, references, and monographs) that span more than 40 disciplines. CRC Press has traditionally been associated with the Sciences, specifically Chemistry and Engineering. However, the subject collections in CRCnetBASE cover a wide range of disciplines, including Information Security, Public Administration, Occupational Health & Safety, and Project Management.

In addition to e-books published under the imprint CRC Press, CRCnetBASE also includes online offerings from Auerbach and Chapman & Hall. The powerful search platform has been adopted throughout the world at academic and corporate institutions.

Visit the CRCnetBASE trial now, and let us know what you think by posting comments here!

This trial ends October 2, 2010.
