It combines our previous Databases A-Z and our Databases by Subject pages. Clicking on Find Databases will bring you to an alphabetical listing of all of our databases. This list can be filtered by selecting a category from the By Subject menu (roughly equivalent to Databases by Subject). For Chicana & Chicano Studies topics, the obvious By Subject category is Chicana & Chicano Studies.<br /><br />It is very important to understand the interdisciplinarity of Chicana & Chicano Studies. The best databases for your topic depend on the topic. Therefore the first databases listed in the By Subject list may not be the best databases for your topic. As it stands I have ordered these databases in the following manner:<br /> 1. multi-subjects databases (including article, book, and reference book databases)<br /> 2. simgle-subject databases (in alphabetical order according to title of database)<br /> 3. single-subject encyclopedias for art and music<br /> 4. image databases for art and photography/photojournalism<br /> 5. newspaper databases<br /> 6. historical and primary source databases<br /> 7. music databases<br /> 8. statistics and government document databases<br /> 9. biographical databases<br /><br />To further refine the list of possible databases, you can select a tag associated with Chicana & Chicano Studies. Once you selected a tag, associated databases will appear in alphabetical order, but there should be fewer, more appropriate databases from which to choose.<br /><br />It is now possible for you to add your own tags to databases that you find that are especially helpful for specific topics. Just click on the view tags icon to the left of the database and add your tags. One of our librarians will take a look at the tag to make sure it is appropriate, so it will not appear immediately.<br /><br />Good Luck and happy hunting! </p>CRC Librarianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10957012803882239661noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7431058778393929153.post-32324899754629794352009-05-18T14:19:00.000-07:002009-05-18T16:08:11.183-07:00Graduate Program AnnouncementIn addition to CRC activities and programming announcements, research help and resource suggestions, we also intend to include items of interest to our students, such as the following:<br /><br />The George Washington University: Bilingual Special Education annouces its Online Distance Program for Fall 2009**<br />The George Washington University’s bilingual special education *online distance program* is now accepting applications for the 18 credit hour graduate *Certificate *and 45 credit hour *M.A.* in Bilingual Special Education for the Fall 2009 semester.For more information: <a href="http://gsehd.gwu.edu/bilingual">http://gsehd.gwu.edu/bilingual</a><br />Please contact Tara Courchaine at <a style="COLOR: blue; TEXT-DECORATION: underline; text-underline: single" href="mailto:taratez@gwu.edu*">mailto:taratez@gwu.edu*</a><a style="COLOR: blue; TEXT-DECORATION: none; text-underline: single" href="mailto:taratez@gwu.edu*"> </a>or call (719) 660-7564.<br />**The program is eligible for FAFSA financial aid, and individuals who qualify can apply for funding through the TEACH grant.CRC Librarianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10957012803882239661noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7431058778393929153.post-17571578051733966082009-05-15T14:35:00.000-07:002009-05-15T15:20:53.309-07:00Looking for up to date statistics on Chicana/os & Latina/o?<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__Mh3MhxAVHQ/Sg3qsO8vLUI/AAAAAAAAABA/m6sQ0wtvAJA/s1600-h/PEWlogo.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5336179179151895874" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 63px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__Mh3MhxAVHQ/Sg3qsO8vLUI/AAAAAAAAABA/m6sQ0wtvAJA/s320/PEWlogo.gif" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Check out the Pew Hispanic Center, <a href="http://pewhispanic.org/">http://pewhispanic.org/</a>. which conducts surveys and compiles research and reports on changing Latino demographics in the United States.

So, as an experiment, I have set up this blog. However, if only I am able to post here, instead of all of the CRC staff, then, a blog will not be as useful as it might be. Any suggestions on other technologies to explore?CRC Librarianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10957012803882239661noreply@blogger.com0
