1. IMC Resource Survey - Students

As we face diminishing budgets and the emergence of new databases, it is time to revisit the IMC's current subscriptions to determine which databases and general magazines are being used and which are not. Your input is a very important part of our evaluation process.

As an FYI, many of our databases, including EBSCO, have been provided free of charge or at reduced rates from the NJ State Library. With the Governor's proposed cuts to the State Library, we may lose many of these benefits and find ourselves unable to resubscribe to what we currently are using, hence the need for your valued input.
