Oxford Scholarship Online

Oxford Scholarship Online is an excellent resource for accessing academic texts electronically in 20 individual subject areas. It provides librarians, scholars, academics and students with unparalleled access to over 8,000 texts each of which is fully searchable with a subscriber log in. Part of University Scholarship Online, operated by Oxford University Press, the parent Web site offers users the opportunity to access over 10,000 titles in 24 subject areas from 10 university presses providing an unparalleled access to academic publications. With all the searchable options to be expected from an academic Web site, flexible search options, and a variety of options for personalisation, this is an excellent resource. Further, the continual addition of new texts (121 in October 2012, for example), combined with mobile optimisation allowing for browsing on the move and use in conjunction with desktop research, add further reason to consider the use of this product.
