EBSCO Offers Free Access to GreenFile.
EBSCO is one of the nation’s leading databases of online scholarly files. Generally to get access to their information, you need to buy rights or have access through a university or other library; however, in an attempt to promote environmental awareness, they are offering access to GreenFile to everyone for free.
Here is their description of the resource:
In keeping with our commitment to environmental consciousness, EBSCO proudly offers GreenFILE, a freely accessible research database focusing on the relationship between human beings and the environment, with well-researched but accessible information on topics ranging from global warming to recycling to alternate fuel sources and beyond. Comprised of scholarly and general interest titles, as well as government documents and reports, GreenFILE offers a unique perspective on the positive and negative ways humans affect the ecology.
The resource is great for students, scholars, journalists, and the general interest reader looking for reliable sources on environmental issues. You can click a box to make sure that the results of your searches have full-text articles available or to make sure that they are peer-reviewed.
