Are you researching a current, “hot” topic? Need to find out what is newsworthy in countries around the globe? Try the Library’s newest interdisciplinary database, Global Issues in Context.
You can access this database from the Library's homepage by clicking on "Online Resources A-Z", clicking on "G", and scrolling to find this title. You can even use it off campus--just log in with your Library borrower ID.
This database explores broad current events and controversial
topics from a global perspective. Information is arranged in topical “portals.”
These portals provide a wide range of materials, including a brief overview of
the topic, reference sources for background information, global news articles,
images and videos, podcasts, primary source documents, scholarly journal
articles, and more. All materials are full text and link to other related
portals within the database.
Use the search box near the top of the page to look for materials, or browse portals by issue or geographic region.
For help using this or any other resource, email us or contact an RU Library location for assistance.
