Current trials

The Library offers trials of databases to allow students and staff the opportunity to assess their content and platform usability. Depending on the feedback obtained, and the cost involved, some of these databases may be added to the Monash collection, particularly if they support the University's teaching, learning, and research requirements.

***Because Monash University has to adhere to terms and conditions from the vendor, resources on trial are not to be used for current research, projects and coursework as we have not paid for explicit use of content.***

Please send us your comments about the database(s) by filling in a web-based evaluation form.

Note: Please disregard the browser security warning. Trial databases webpage links, provided by the library, should be trusted and the certificate added.

Moscow News, founded in 1930, for years represented the official English-language press organ of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Its establishment stemmed from a large influx of foreign, mostly American, workers who emigrated to Russia during the Great Depression. Its mastermind was American journalist and activist Anna Louise Strong, who acted in cooperation with Stalin’s cultural propagandists with the aim of providing English-speaking newcomers with an informative – and often edulcorated – view of the Soviet standards of life. Thus, throughout the years, Moscow News served as a tool of positive propaganda that the Soviet regime employed to embellish and polish its public image. As a consequence, censorship heavily affected its rhetoric, narrative, and contents, determining which issues were worthy of being reported and which ones had to be dismissed or ignored. The newspaper is a rich resource for those interested in assessing the internal mechanism of the Soviet Union’s cultural diplomacy and consensus-building machine.
