At yesterday's Town Meeting, two of Babson's faculty and staff service awards were given. Allan Cohen, Edward A. Madden Distinguished Professor of Global Leadership, was awarded the 2008 Walter H. Carpenter Prize for Exceptional Contributions to Babson College.
The 4C Awards went to Jamie Wiss Doherty, Carolyn Langdon Place, and Cathy Shea.

Congratulations to all!

I was reading last week's Free Press and discovered a profile on the Archives on page two. As much as I enjoyed hearing nice things about the archives, I was particularly thrilled to hear how fired up people were for Beaver Bowl.  I hope that that interest in Babson's history carries on into the participant's future.

Thanks very much.

We have trials to three more EBSCOhost databases this month:

• Econlit with Full-Text: EconLit with Full Text contains all of the content available in EconLit, plus full text for many journals including titles from the American Economic Association, including: American Economic Review, Journal of Economic Literature, and Journal of Economic Perspectives. This database also includes many non-English full-text journals in economics & finance.
• Risk Management Reference Center: Content includes hundreds of full text journals and periodicals, hundreds of thousands of selected articles, reports, summaries, books, blogs, FAQs, and news wires that pertain to all types of risk (including credit, liquidity, operational, event, and market risk).
• Newspaper Source Plus: Newspaper Source Plus provides cover-to-cover full text for more than 370 U.S. & international newspapers. The database also contains selected full text for nearly 100 U.S. newspapers and more than 419,000 television & radio news transcripts. Newspaper Source Plus is updated daily.

Access these databases by logging into EBSCOhost and choosing the appropriate database from the list that appears.

Feedback on any/all of these databases is most welcome! As is feedback on any of our other databases/services. Please fill out the feedback form or send an email to reference@babson.edu.

I have just swapped out the greyscale scans of our Newton Manuscripts for color scans of the same items. Enjoy.
