Web Page Update: Find Articles

Find Articles Page Revamped

A new and improved Find Articles page is up.  The purpose of this page is to provide a one-stop resource for finding articles at E. H. Butler Library, whether through the library’s online periodical databases, our online journals, or our vast print and microfilm holdings.

As before, there are prominent links to general, full-text databases. But the “Databases by Subject” now goes to databases in specific subject guides (e.g., “Anthropology”), as opposed to broader categories (e.g., “Social Sciences.”)

Another improvement on this page is the ability to search for specific online journals by title or ISSN.

Lastly, the “A-Z Print and Microfilm Journals” page has been bundled onto the new Find Articles page under “Journals (Print and Microfilm)”

Exhibit: Russian Americans

(Wall case, upper lobby)
This exhibit was on display in August 2008

After the October revolution in 1917, millions of Russian people left country. A part of them found a new
place to live in US. This country gave them not only the place to live, but also the place to create and be successful in the life. They became Russian Americans: among them, the designer who dressed in 1935 Karmen in the pants on the opera stage, the composer who composed “April in Paris” and “Autumn in New York”, the composer of such memorable films as “Lost Horizon,” “It’s a Wonderful Life,” “High Moon,” and many more, two Harvard professors who won the Nobel Prize in Economics, the actor who was one of “The Magnificent Seven,” and also one physicist whose writing skills allowed him to turn in books about science to books about adventures.

The exhibit features photographs and biographies of prominent Russian Americans Yul Brynner, Valentina Sanina, Vernon Duke, Wassily Leontief, George Gamov, Simon Kuznets, Alexander Poniatoff, Dmitry Tiomkin, and Michael Chekov.
