Databases Update

SBU Libraries has added a new information literacy resource! 

Students who access InfoLit Modules will learn information literacy by interacting with the resource through videos, tutorials, quizzes, and more.  A pre-test and a post-test gauges the students' understanding of information literacy.  This resource can be used in classes for a grade if the students make an account! 
Contact Rachel Wallenbeck, the Digital Services Librarian, for more information.


As of the Fall semester, we no longer subscribe to the following databases:

  • America: History & Life
  • Historical Abstracts
  • Naxos Music Library: Jazz
