Pulse on Sustainability


Greenfile – Comprised of scholarly and general interest titles, as well as government documents and reports, GreenFILE offers a unique perspective on the positive and negative ways humans affect the ecology. Drawing on the connection between the environment and disciplines such as agriculture, education, law, health and technology, GreenFILE will serve as an informative resource for anyone concerned about the issues facing our planet.

Gale’s competing product, GreenR, appears more comprehensive – 86 returns for “Smart Grid” in the title compared to 14 in Greenfile, but only 1 was refereed compared to 6 in GreenFile. More curious– that 1 article in GreenFile is available fulltext in Ebsco’s Academic Search Premier which should make it immediately available in GreenFile. For some reason, Ebsco must not be making use of the range of their databases in GreenFile.
