The Library now subscribes to the Opposing Viewpoints Resource Center (OVRC) from Gale Cengage.
OVRC presents both sides of difficult "hot topic" issues using articles, essays, primary source documents, biographies of social activists and reformers, statistics, court case overviews, profiles of government and special interest groups, web-sites, and podcasts.
Another 'pro/con/hot topics' database offered by the Library is CQ Researcher Plus Archive. Each CQ Researcher report explores a single issue in the news in depth each week. Topics range from social and political issues to environment, health, education, science and technology. This is appropriate for contemporary as well as historical research as coverage begins in 1923 and is updated weekly.
Facts on File, previously offered as a looseleaf service in the Library is now online! It's the Facts on File World News Digest which brings together and enhances news stories and editorials since 1940. This archival record of domestic and international news is updated weekly and contains more than a million hyperlinks. Major political, social, and economic events are included.
