The New Jersey Knowledge Initiative ran out of money to fund the 11 databases that it provides to universities and small business throughout the state. The program’s budget was cut by the legislature and full funding was not restored for this year.
What does this mean for us? Well, CSE will retain access to 6 of the 11 databases:
-
Business Source Premier and Regional Business News
-
Biomedical Reference Collection: Comprehensive
-
CINAHL and PRE-CINAHL
-
Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins High Impact Journal Collection, via Ovid
CSE will no longer have access to the following databases:
-
ReferenceUSA
-
Wiley InterScience
-
Nature Journals
-
Nursing and Allied Health Collection: Comprehensive
-
Medline via Ebsco
Two items of note regarding the list above:
(1) CSE does still have access to Nursing and Allied Health Collection: Expanded, a subset of the Comprehensive version, via Jersey Clicks; and (2) CSE has access to Medline via FirstSearch and Ovid, as well as via the free version from the National Library of Medicine.
