Greenwood Press
Nylink is delighted to offer these comprehensive and engaging electronic resources from Greenwood Press, available via subscription and at a discount to Nylink members.
- Pop Culture Universe
- An authoritative digital library of information on American and world popular culture, past and present, in a dynamic package. Built on hundreds of award-winning titles for all levels of researchers, PCU provides a safe haven for investigating topics that appeal to students—without the bias, advertising, suggestive content, or questionable authorship of commercial or fan sites.
The American Mosaic
- The American Indian Experience
- Designed, developed, and indexed under the guidance of Loriene Roy and a team of American Indian librarians, scholars, and subject specialists to meet the research and curriculum needs of students, teachers, librarians, patrons, and researchers, The American Indian Experience offers full-text access to more than 150 volumes of reference content, hundreds of primary documents, and thousands of images, with coverage from prehistory to the present day, from the Inuit of the north to the Seminoles of Florida.
- The Latino American Experience
- First-ever database dedicated to the history and culture of Latinos, the largest, fastest growing minority group in the United States. Designed, developed, and indexed under the guidance of Latino librarians and library directors.
- The African American Experience
- The widest-ranging and easiest-to-use online collection on African American life ever assembled, from one of the most respected publishers in the field.
- Praeger Security International Online
- the largest full-text, electronic resource available on international security. Containing over 600 books and growing by more than 70 titles a year, PSIO not only incorporates the entire PSI print program—it also features important titles from Greenwood and Praeger as well. New books are uploaded on a monthly basis, often before the print versions are even available for purchase.
- Greenwood's Daily Life Online
- What did people eat, wear, use? What did they hope, invent, sing? These are the kinds of questions students of history always ask, and it is precisely what is missing from many available reference resources. Greenwood's suite of Daily Life Online resources answers those questions and many more with Daily Life Through History (available in Basic and Premium. Premium also incorporates World Cultures Today), Daily Life America , and World Folklore and Folklife.
- The Reader's Advisor Online
- The Reader's Advisor Online helps librarians and other professionals who work with readers identify books they will enjoy reading, whether it is genre fiction, literary/mainstream fiction, or recreational nonfiction. More than a database, this sophisticated finding tool gives users multiple ways to browse and access titles in a friendly, conversational tone: genre, subgenre, reading interests, subjects/topics/themes, appeal features, character, location, author, title, and series title.
