Gender Studies Database has a new interface

Over the summer, the library opted to get the content of the Gender Studies Database delivered through the EbscoHost platform. In non-library-speak, that means that when you go to search this resource, you'll see the same interface you use to search Academic Search Premiere. We hope this will make using GSD more intuitive and less frustrating. Another great aspect? We now have more than one 'seat' for the database. Last year, only one member of the community could use this database at the time, and we had an eight-minute wait after someone logged out. With EbscoHost, many of us can use the database at once.

So dive in! GSD is a great source for scholarly research in women's, gender, and sexuality studies. If you'd like help navigating this or any of our other databases, or in choosing the best databases for your conference work, please request a consultation here.
