Center for Research Libraries eBooks

Many of the Center for Research Libraries' (CRL) outstanding digitized collection records are now searchable in our catalog and available to WU users on or off campus. These CRL eresources include more than 16,000 digitized resources freely available to member institutions, including Washington University Libraries.

• Browse all the records ; additions will be made periodically. You can also browse by searching "crle" (without quotes) as the OCLC number: http://catalog.wustl.edu/screens/numbers.html
• Search the catalog yourself to discover over 3000 international dissertations, including the CRL Nobel Laureates dissertation collection and more.

Syllabi Central

Syllabi Central is an SIS application for the storage and display of class syllabi. It features an intuitive web site that makes it easy for faculty or administrators to upload a syllabus. Links to these syllabi are included in University applications such as Course Listings to make it easy for students to see a syllabus when they are searching for courses. Students want to be able to review a syllabus for courses they are considering taking. Syllabi are rarely available three to four months in advance when students are preparing for registration, but by accessing an archive of past syllabi, students can make better informed decisions about courses in which they are interested. Other benefits of a central syllabi archive are:

• A resource for departments/schools during accreditation and curriculum planning.
• A resource for subject librarians and other course staff in helping faculty with course materials and planning.
• A resource for University archivists.
• A resource for new faculty.
• An easy way for faculty to distribute the syllabus to a class (every syllabus has a unique URL).

Syllabi Central can be used by faculty, TAs, course staff, and WUCRSL administrators. They are automatically linked to the courses for which they are responsible. I can add current or past syllabi to the system for you if you wish; just email it to me, rlewis@wustl.edu. Default is open access, so specify if you want it available to WU users only.

eBooks added, Feb. 2013

We have a 30-day trial to all the ebooks on University Press Scholarship Online through March 29, 2013. This platform aggregates several university presses, such as Oxford University Press, California University Press and University of Chicago Press. You can browse the Biology eBooks. Note: The collections for Neurosciences, Social Work and Public Health and Epidemiology are already purchased, so access to those sections will continue after the trial is over. Access will be available on campus. Please contact Ruth Lewis with your comments or if you want to use this trial from off campus.
