MSU Libraries encourages faculty to verify syllabi, Canvas links after introduction of new databases

The Mississippi State University Libraries encourages faculty to verify information in their syllabi and Canvas course sites after the addition of new technologies and the discontinuation of several online databases.

In July, the university announced the addition of CloudSource+ and CloudSourceOA. CloudSource+ is a new discovery tool that searches across multiple CloudSource+ databases,
journal publishers and the library's online catalog. CloudSourceOA is an index of more than 55 million high-quality, open-access scholarly journal articles, open textbooks, open eBooks and open education resources.

With these additions and changes, faculty should verify links to articles and databases in their materials.
