For the next month TexShare will be hosting an open trial of Gale's Opposing Viewpoints database. What is Opposing Viewpoints? OVRC draws on the acclaimed social issues series published by Greenhaven Press, as well as core reference content from other Gale and Macmillan Reference USA sources, including selections from Bioethics for Students. The result is a dynamic online library of current event topics--the facts, as well as the arguments, of each topic's proponents and detractors. OVRC's unique features include Topic Overviews -- frameworks which allow students to explore each topic's many facets -- and exclusive electronic access to Gale's Information Plus reference program of statistics, government data, legislation and more. The trial is now live at: http://trials.galegroup.com/texshare2004/ Opposing Viewpoints will be a TexSelect option for this next contract year (2004-2005). We will have TexSelect ordering information available to the membership soon. In the meantime please explore the Opposing Viewpoints database. I know you will find it very interesting and I hope it meets your information needs. If you have questions about TexShare, TexSelect or the open trial please contact me at the number below or by email. Thank you, Russlene Russlene Waukechon TexShare Database Coordinator Texas State Library and Archives Commission 512.463.7402 512.936.2306(f) [EMAIL PROTECTED]
