Libraries and Open content2

Checked MUN and they are similarly locked into the pay for content structure.


IN the Articles area you can see that many are not accessible unless you are enrolled.


In the ejournals section ........

.....some publications are free and some are Ebsco host


and some you have to be a enrolled student at MUN to access.


The only open area with completely free is in the Digital Archives which run have specific and historical content only.


Great for the Folklorist or the Newfoundland-o-phile but hardly a repository in the sense mentioned in the Educase and other literature we have read in this course

Cool for a screen saver however!!
