This collection of links points to content sections in research guides for tourism and hospitality. The database sections for each field include the number of citations found in the each database for a core set of words and phrases central to the field of study. Some of the databases listed would not be considered for tourism research, but they do have content in the field. Consider criminal justice databases, for example. Finding tourism and hospitality core content in the Criminal Justice Abstracts We are not talking about core criminal justice content here like "My merry adventures as a prison escapee." We are looking at core content in tourism such as ecotourism sources and the like. Criminal Justice Abstracts A search of this database for tourism OR tourist OR tourists OR museums OR travel OR vacation OR vacations OR vacationing OR "visitor sites of interest" OR ecotourism OR hospitality FINDS 3,122 Results Sample Titles Convenience stores and routine activities in a summer tourist destination Hair drug testing in the new Brazilian regulation to obtain professional driver's licence: no parallel to any other law enforcement in the world.

We spend a great deal of money on our databases and amount of use is a key reason for leasing these tools. Encouraging off prescription use for these tools when there is content to back the advice may significantly expand the use of these tools. 3. Does the database provide multi-step searching like OVID, EbscoHost, the current Worldcat First Search interface and if you look hard enough Proquest. Databases that permit only one step searches force users to either do very simple searches or on the other hand they are forced to accurately construct complex boolean algebra statements. This makes such tools less usable. 4. How good is the subject field coverage of a database in its field(s) of coverage. . . Listings of handbooks and encyclopedias have links to title searches in Google Books or in Google Scholar and in either case one may find a Google Books entry with a preview of the book in either database. The recent posts sent to the Trinet list this past week with links to a Brown University online catalog page in at least one of the cases, the catalog had a link to Google Books for more information on the book. The links I am providing are for a title search of one of these databases results in a literature review of sorts for the specific topic of the encyclopedia or handbook and also gives a sense regarding how much each item is being used.
