Library trials of useful databases

Thought you might be interested to know that the UWM Libraries have subscribed to trial versions of a few useful databases for people doing media-related work, namely the Film and Performance Arts databases through Proquest and the Film and Television Literature Index with Full Text. You can access both http://guides.library.uwm.edu/trials. There is a space to enter feedback, which I imagine might encourage the library to subscribe permanently. So please check them out, and write some comments. Would be great to have these resources available to us. I know that I will be encouraging my students to use them, as well, while they still have access.
