Credo Reference

Do you need to check a definition, understand a literary reference or a scientific term? Tired of getting too many irrelevant results from Web search engines when you need quick, accurate answers? Need trustworthy reference information with properly formatted citations?

Credo Reference is now a part of our library's online reference collection, and it features full-text content from 100 reference books covering a broad range of subjects. It's a search engine like Google, but instead of searching the entire Internet, your results come from a comprehensive library of trusted reference sources without advertisements, clutter, or irrelevant hits.

Access Credo at http://www.xreferplus.com/ or click on Credo on our Online Resources page. The network will recognize all McPherson college students, faculty, and staff. If you're at home, you'll have access 24/7 by supplying your e-mail login and password.

With Credo, you get content covering every major subject. Credo includes print entries, art, diagrams, maps, photos, and audio pronunciation files. Cross-reference links cut across topics, titles and publishers to give you accurate, contextual results. Each Credo record is also found in our online catalog.

For more assistance with Credo, please check with Susan in the library.
