New Content in Intelecom

Intelecom, a digital repository of educational clips, just got better by adding an additional 350 clips from National Geographic to its collection. These educational clips are great for instructors and students. Faculty can use them in the classroom or embed them in Blackboard. Students can benefit by using them as additional tutorial support.

New clips are available in the following disciplines: Anthropology, Astronomy, Atmospheric Sciences, Botany, Chemistry, Earth Science, Geography, Oceanography, and Zoology.

Students and faculty can access Intelecom from the Palomar College Library website. Click on Articles. For remote access, a Palomar College login is required. If you have additional questions, please contact Tamara Weintraub, Databases and Serials Librarian.

Ebsco Database Research on Mobile Devices

EBSCO databases now autodetect when a user is on a mobile device. There is no need to switch interfaces manually any longer. This change makes searching from your phone one step easier. If you have never tried library research from your phone, perhaps now is the time to attempt it. From a WIFI connected mobile device, go to the Palomar College Library website, and click the Articles tab. Select any database with EBSCO in parentheses to enjoy the autodetect mobile device feature. Palomar College e-services id and password are required for remote access.
If you have any questions, please contact Tamara Weintraub, Serials and Databases Librarian.

Did you know the Escondido Center Library has Texbooks?

Grants from Palomar College Foundation President's Associates and the Leichtag Family Foundation make it possible for students to use textbooks in the library. So before you head over to the bookstore, you may want to check to see if the book is at the library, available to use, for free.
