The CBCRM RC Library

The CBCRM Resource Center Library brings together books, journals, newsletters, audio-tapes, CD-ROMs and other electronic materials, monographs, research reports, conference proceedings, photocopied periodical articles, journals, brochures, and other learning materials on local and international CBCRM practice and related topics.

A library database that allows easy retrieval of information and bibliographic data has been designed and is currently available both for local use within the library premises and through the web. Efforts to make electronic copies of selected library materials available for downloading have been initiated. Links to databases of network partners will also be soon included in the Resource Center's website.

System features include keyword search, limited search, combined search using Boolean operators, printing of selected records, and links to related records. go to catalog ...
