Where are CSU thesauri? As per usual buried in a menu some-where that I cannot find. You might want to view RMIT website that clearly lists general dictionaries and thesauri by subject area! http://www.rmit.edu.au/library/reference/dictionaries#_Economics
Hi Anne,
Subject specific lists of dictionaries can be found on our subject support pages at http://www.csu.edu.au/division/library/find-info/subject/ The idea behind this is to embed access to them at point of need in your particular subject area.
We also have a more general list under online reference at http://www.csu.edu.au/division/library/find-info/links/dictionaries.html
I can see the value in having the subject lists available on one page, so I will pass your comments on to the team who is currently reviewing our online reference pages. Making our resources easy to find is one of our major goals and it is an ongoing challenge to get it right, so we appreciate your comments and will keep them in mind when reviewing our website.
