The library is considering these two online resources. Access will be available until August 2. We appreciate your thoughts and opinions, so please post comments.
CQ Almanac Online offers original narrative accounts of every major piece of legislation that lawmakers considered during a congressional session. It brings together over sixty years of authoritative congressional reporting in one resource.
CQ Global Researcher delivers definitive, in-depth coverage of newsworthy global affairs from a multitude of international viewpoints, and offers focused, readable, single-topic reports on world issues.

PASCAL Delivers will continue to operate in 2008-09, albeit 3 days per week instead of 5.
PASCAL databases such as Academic Search Premier, Business Source Premier, and Literature Resource Center will remain accessible during 2008-09.
THANK YOU for all of your comments and concerns about this issue. PASCAL’s Board will continue campaigning for funding reinstatement in 2009-10. If you want to follow along, here is a link to PASCAL’s news.

Library faculty are continuing the process of moving as many of The Citadel’s journal and magazine subscriptions as possible to an electronic format. Whenever possible we choose a subscription option with PDF documents in addition to or rather than html text.
