  • International Bibliography of the Social Sciences: new interface

    Until July 2010 IBSS was provided by Ebsco. However Ebsco can supply no longer IBSS and our subscription has been taken over by CSA. It is a new platform for Edge Hill users but seems very intuitive.  IBSS focuses mainly on the four core social science disciplines – anthropology, economics, politics and sociology – but it also covers a range of interdisciplinary subjects, such as development studies, human geography and environment and gender studies. It can be accessed at IBSS
