New in 2005! ZSR Library has licensed a vast array of digital content, from classical music to psychology journals to multidisciplinary content from the eighteenth century.

Classical Music Library is our first foray into the realm of licensed streaming music. Over 49,000 tracks are included representing all eras and genres of classical music. More tracks are added periodically. Users can create their own customized playlists, or choose from many themed playlists compiled by the publisher. Additional tools are available for incorporating music into the classroom. We’ve purchased a license for 3 simultaneous users. We’ll be monitoring usage to see if additional users are necessary.

CAMIO – Catalog of Art Museum Images Online consists of over 100,000 images from various museums and collections around the world. These primary source images are available for use by faculty and students in projects, lectures and presentations. Not limited to paintings or sculpture, CAMIO also includes costumes, decorative objects, architecture and photographs. Additionally, this collection has cross-disciplinary applications for history, anthropology, sociology, music, theatre, literature, and communication. Take some time to explore CAMIO and see what it has to offer! Need journalistic photos as well? Try Accunet/AP Multimedia Archive.

Eighteenth Century Collections Online contains almost 150,000 texts published in England or in English between 1701 and 1800. This set replaces our microfilm collection The Eighteenth Century. Eventually the entire collection will also be full-text searchable. Try the “fuzzy search” feature to account for spelling variations. You can also limit your search to a broad category such as Religion or Social Sciences. Soon we will add records for each text in the collection to our online catalog. Can’t have too many primary sources? Also consider Early English Books Online (1475-1700) and Early American Imprints, Series I. Evans (1639-1800).

ZSR is also investing more heavily in online encyclopedias. One significant addition in December was the International Encyclopedia of the Social & Behavioral Sciences. Its 4000 articles look at the social sciences with the widest possible lens. Our online edition corresponds to the 26-volume printed edition. Unlike the print edition, however, it will be regularly updated.

PsycARTICLES is one of several new collections of electronic journals. PsycARTICLES includes the full text of journals published by the American Psychological Association and a few others. If you perform database searches in PsycINFO, links to PsycARTICLES content are seamlessly included. As with all other e-journal packages, individual titles are listed in our journals database and in the online catalog.

We’ve also added over 1000 audiobooks from NetLibrary. Each title is listed in our online catalog. Need help getting audiobooks to work? Read our FAQ.
