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.

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.
Here is the link to this content:
