Credo Reference now includes more than 9,000 Topic Pages! If a Topic Page exists for your search in Credo Reference, it will appear at the top of your search results. Here’s more info from the official announcement:

Credo Topic Pages are a new approach to presenting and organizing information resources. We developed topic pages to provide context and vocabulary around a subject and act as a starting point for research.

Credo currently has over 9,000 topic pages. They cover a wide range of subject areas – from art to medicine and literature to science. View some sample Topic Pages:

• Censorship
• South Africa
• Petroleum
• Evolution
• Obesity

For a quick tour of Topic Pages watch our video introduction.

Credo Resources: The top section of Topic Pages contains a full-text topic overview from a key reference work. You’ll also see definitions, related topics, articles from subject encyclopedias and images. All from Credo.

Library Resources: What else does my library have on this topic? Configurable by librarians, this section is designed to bring in search results from additional selected databases and repositories as well as results from your e-book collections.

Free Web Resources: At the very bottom, you’ll see free, timely web content that enhances Topic Pages with additional depth and currency. A select group of free web resources will be available. All sections are library configurable.

Note: Topic Pages are live on the Credo site but will continue to be in beta while we enhance and improve them over the coming months.
