One of the key features of the Academic Editions databases is an option titled “Idea Exchange” that provides a collection of peer-reviewed articles on core topics designed to encourage deeper scholarly exploration and discussion.
Other features of the Academic databases include regularly updated content relevant to each database’s subject area, enhanced navigation capabilities to assist in locating key resources, and searching and filtering efficiencies.
Access to this trial is available through the library’s New Database Trials and Subscriptions webpage.
