Oxford Reference Online

Oxford Reference Online is a new quick information source. It contains over 100 dictionaries and reference titles, published by Oxford University Press, covering the complete subject spectrum: from General Reference and Language to Science and Medicine, and from Humanities and Social Sciences to Business and Professional.

The database may be searched in its entirety, or by one of twenty-eight subject divisions. It may be used for a fast lookup for information on specific words or terms. In addition to extensive English language sources, it also has dictionaries for French, German, Spanish, or Italian.

The URL is www.oxfordreference.com, or if off-campus, use the entry under "Find Articles" "General" to access through our proxy server. The library has contracted for one user at a time, so if busy, try back later.
