Databases A To Free: Open Access Databases' Presence On The Databases A To Z Page, Vickie Montigaud-Green, Taylor Baugher

Presentations

Starting with the premise that most academic libraries have a Libguides Database A-Z, our poster explains the metacognitive exercise in evaluating our Database A-Z list and adding open-source/ government databases. We realized that after graduation, our students would no longer have access to expensive journals and databases; and, our goal was to provide students with free academic standard options that they would continue to use in their post-graduation lives.
