ATLA, IPSA and the Philosopher’s Index now have a new look. Previously available on the Ovid Silver Platter interface, the content of the databases remains the same, and you can still link to full text online resources via the WebBridge button. Simultaneous searching of two or more databases is also still possible. Access them from the A-Z of online resources.
