Imagine an English manor house. The library. A deep easy chair and a footstool. The dog is snoring comfortably on the floor and there is a good fire going. Your newspapers right beside you on a small table and the bell close at hand to summon the maid for more tea….

Well, not quite like that… But if you need to swap your office chair for something more comfortable if only for a while – then why not stop by the library for your morning or afternoon break. You will find comfortable and quiet seating areas across multiple floors and, on the ground floor, a lounge area with inviting sofas by Danish designer Børge Mogensen. 

Read today’s paper!
Before you get too comfortable, maybe pick up one of the daily newspapers from the circulation desk, you have the choice of Financial Times, Børsen, Information, Le Monde, Politiken, and Berlingske Tidende… And while you decide, why not have a chat with the librarian on duty. If you prefer a book or an international magazine, you will find some of the library´s most recent arrivals on the book rack in the ground floor lounge. And if you should find the book rack empty – our new selection of purely recreational books will be arriving very shortly.

So – come to the library for your coffee break. Bring your own cup or buy one, and a nice piece of chocolate to go with it, from CBS Library Kiosk. And just enjoy!

Great news: Course Readings in Canvas is now ready for use.

Course Readings is a reading list solution that will help you create and share course readings with your students. Creating a reading list from scratch is very easy, and so is rolling over and recycling reading lists in subsequent years. 

When creating a reading list in Course Readings, you will automatically create a link to a library record, which will provide easy access for students to an item status as well as the full document.

You can include all types of items in your reading lists, both the classics and videos, podcasts etc. If you include books and articles not currently available from the library collections, the library will be notified and will try to procure the item, preferably in a digital edition.  Print books in your lists will automatically find their way to the course readings print collection in the Solbjerg Plads library, to which students have 24/7 access.  

Apart from all the benefits to you as an instructor, the advantages to students are abounding. It will be easy to identify course readings and access will be the same across courses and programmes.

Finally, reading lists and individual reading list items will be instantly recognizable as all inputs originate in the library discovery system. 

Course Readings is a joint venture between Teaching & Learning and CBS Library.
 

To get a head start, sign up for a brief Zoom introduction to the Course Readings software or check out this guide.

Any questions? Please reach out to your liaison librarian.

The Thomson One database (formerly Thomson One Banker) ceases to exist as of January, 2022.

Thomson One has for many years been a valuable resource of company and financial information. Especially the Research (or Investext) Reports have been of great value to CBS researchers.

New database
Acknowledging the significance of the investment reports to CBS researchers, CBS Library has secured access to the database S&P Capital IQ. From S&P Capital IQ you will be able to access the same reports as in Thomson One plus a whole range of other useful information.

We are working hard to make sure that S&P Capital IQ will be up and running by January 1, 2022 to avoid any information voids.

If you have any questions, please contact Birgit Brejnebøl.
