Trials to video and music library databases

The Library is running several trials to a few video and music databases from Alexander Street Press and Naxos as well as JoVE (Journal of Visualized Experiments). If you're interested, please check them out and give us your feedback. Most of the trials end Nov. 30 (JoVE ends Dec. 31), and faculty and students may use them freely until then.
