For a variety of reasons, the UIUC Library is switching access to the PsycINFO w/ PsycArticles databases from one vendor (OVID) to another (CSA/Cambridge Scientific). There are some functions that will be enhanced through CSA, such as searching across multiple databases by using the drop-down menu on the search page to select the "social sciences" or by selecting specific databases from that same page. If you have questions about searching these databases through this vendor, please contact us using one of the methods described on our Ask-A-Librarian page.

To set up an alert system to let you know when new materials in your area of interest are added to the database, please see the directions at Alerts in CSA (Cambridge) Databases. Access to these databases via OVID will end June 30, 2007. CSA access is available now.
