New History Database

The online index America: History and Life is now available at SRU.
America: History and LIfe contains bibliographical citations of book and media reviews and dissertations as well as journal articles on the history and culture of the United States and Canada from prehistoric times to the present. In addition to covering English-language historical journals, coverage includes selected historical journals from major countries, state and local history journals (including Pennsylvania), and a targeted selection of hundreds of journals in the social sciences and humanities. Many of these journals are only indexed in AHL. Periodicals from 1954 to the present are included.
WIth AHL consider the new service called CLIO Alert. You can create a profile containing up to 10 user-defined searches­to be performed for you on a monthly basis with the results e-mailed to you. This service can be accessed from either the Advanced or the Simple Search screens via the "CLIO Alert Profile" link.
To access America: History and Life from school or home, go to the library website, www.sru.edu/library, select Journal Articles/Databases, then chose Databases Alphabetically By Title.
