Humanities, Social Science and Education Library’s Featured Database will give you a very brief introduction to the basic features of one of our specialized subscription databases. This time we’re featuring Graphic Novels Core Collection, brought to you by EBSCOhost.
Link: https://guides.lib.purdue.edu/db/gnc
Access the databases off-campus with your Purdue login and password.
Focus: This database highlights over 2,000 recommended titles with descriptive and evaluative annotations (including review excerpts and awards the title has won), plus cover art. All titles are searchable by author, title, subject, genre and grade level.
Tutorial: Click here see the basics of using the Graphic Novels Core Collection database.
Quick tip: If you look beneath the title listing, there might be a button that says FIND IT at Purdue Libraries. Sometimes, an item that you find might not be accessible through the database that you are using, but that doesn’t mean that Purdue Libraries doesn’t have access to the item. If you click on the button, you can find out if there is access through another database, if there is a print copy, or if you might need to request the item through our InterLibrary Loan service.
