Three New Journal Titles Accessible Via Project Muse!

Following on from the previous blog entry,  we now have access to a further three electronic ‘full-text’  journal titles via the library electronic resource ‘Project Muse’. 

The new titles are:

1. Israel Studies:  Issued three times a year, this journal deals with all current and historical issues relating to Israel.  Included in the back issues are articles relating to religious debates and to the events of the  holocaust.  Full text access to the journal is available from the first issue which was published in 1996, through to the current edition.
2. Modern Judaism: Again this journal is issued three times a year and full-text access is available from volume 16 , published in 1996.  The journal debates a variety of issues concerning jewish life today as well as historical events that have shaped judaism within the last hundred years.
3. U.S. Catholic Historian: Access to this journal begins with the latest edition – Volume 27 (Winter 2009).  This magazine looks at the historical development of the catholic church in America.

If you need any assistance accessing these journal titles please get in touch.

Are you studying Judaism? We now have access to two additional journal titles!

If you are currently studying Judaism, you may be interested to learn that we can now access two new journal titles via our library electronic database ‘Project Muse’. 

The two titles are:

1. Conserative Judaism: this journal is very much based on the ideological and theological aspects of Judaism.  Currently only the latest issue of the journal (Vol61 2008-9) is accessible, but this will be added to each time a new issue is released.
2. Jewish Quarterly Review : this american journal, first published in the late 1800’s, takes in a broad spectrum of jewish topics.  On-line access via Project Muse currently allows you to view articles published from 2005 up to the present day.

Summer Loans!

The Library is now stamping standard loan books over the summer period. However some courses continue beyond the end of the semester and so reservations remain effective for the time being. Therefore books are subject to being recalled until the end of June.

Congratulations to all final year students!

Congratulations to all those students who are completing their degree course this year.   I wish you all well for the future.
