The SUNY Adirondack LIbrary buys access to dozens of online products focusing on specific subject areas.
For instance, these library databases offer research on:
- criminal justice and law (law cases in WestLaw)
- nursing (specialized nursing videos databases like MedCom)
- business (company reports from Hoover's Online),
- art history (Oxford Art Online, an online database with high-quality images of artwork),
- stastistics (Statista)
- and dozens of other subjects.
See the link below for the library's Subject Databases page. Mouse over each database for descriptions.
Here's a shopping analogy. Let's say you want to buy a new phone.
- General databases are like searching Amazon.com to buy a phone.
- Subject databases are like searching Samsung's or Apple's sites to buy a phone.
