We're trying out two new research tools.

We've setup trial access to two research tools at http://www.astheology.ns.ca/library/trials/

The first is a collection of Bibles called "The Bible in English". It is a searchable database of 20 different versions of the English Bible. You can search across all versions, aselection of them, or just one, and display different versions of the same text on screen at the same time, for ease of comparison.

The second -- Canadian Business & Current Affairs (CBCA) -- is a research database which we are trying for its coverage of Canadian current and news events. Much of the articles are available as full text.

Please let me know how useful you think either of these will be for your teaching, study, and/or research. Contact me with any comments or questions. (Email Keith Noseworthy).

Our trial access ends on July 25th, 2009. This trial access is for AST students, faculty and staff only.

Thanks,
Keith
