State Budget Holdbacks Prompt Database Cancelations

Due to recently announced holdbacks in the state budget, resulting in substantially decreased budget allocations for iCONN, the State Library is forced to discontinue the following resources effective October 1, 2009:

  • AP Images
  • Boston Globe
  • CINAHL (Full text – CINAHL Index is retained)
  • Westlaw Campus Research

The InfoAnytime (24/7) chat service is being discontinued due to lack of state funding.

At CCSU, we are hoping to continue our subscription to the full-text portion of CINAHL as well as the InfoAnytime service through a local library consortium. I will update this post when we confirm the continuation of access.

The majority of content provided by Campus Research is contained in our subscription to Lexis-Nexis Academic Universe. We apologize for the short notice, but we only learned of this on Monday, 9/28.
