Looking for inspiration for research ideas this semester? Emory Libraries has new digital content collections available this fall. These collections cover fields ranging from anthropology to literature, humanities to history, as well as statistical information and government documents. Many are additions to existing collections and content provided by Emory Libraries through ProQuest.
