Dear All,
I wanted to alert you to a new database that is on trial at the moment -- China Data Online. This product brings together government statistics and census data relating to China. With thousands of available variables and a powerful online search platform in English and Chinese, China Data Online is the premier tool for China studies.
Please take a look at this database if it corresponds to your topic area. The trials page is at: http://www.library.usyd.edu.au/databases/trial.html. The trial ends 19 April 2009, so get in quick!
Please fill out the Database Evaluation form at: http://www.library.usyd.edu.au/databases/dbevaluation.html. The more (positive) feedback the library receives, the more likely it is that we will subscribe to this database on an ongoing basis.
Cheers,
Kate

Thia is a very good practice of trail versions before relieving the full fledge version of it .
Yes -- the library never purchases a database without fully testing it! We look for things like usability and database features as well as the quality of the content.
Cheers,
Kate
