FindArticles Redesign

LookSmart announces a redesign of its FindArticles site. With over 5 million articles from over 1,000 publications, FindArticles now has links to FURL for saving articles and also has the ability to limit a search to just the free articles available. For those with no access to a larger article database, FindArticles can be useful. But it includes fewer free articles than it used to, and many of the publications are for limited date spans. Others are not very current (with Omni for example only going up to 1995). Check for access from a local library to the larger InfoTrac, EbscoHost, ProQuest, and other databases that have much more up-to-date full text article access.
