Grad Student Need INSPIRE
Being a graduate student in a heavily research-based field, databases such as INSPIRE provide the necessary information needed to become an effective social services and mental health practitioner. I would not be able to get through any of my courses without the help of the information I receive from the library database!

INSPIRE is Useful
I've used this service many times. It's so useful to write papers using this service than to read fifty or so books just to get the same information. Please don't take it away.

Databases Are Useful
I think it would be a big mistake to delete ANY databases from the library. We are continually telling students to broaden their vision and now you want to narrow it. Education is the vehicle through which Indiana residents will better themselves and consequently better the living conditions, including economics, in the state. Please don't delete any potentially useful databases from our libraries.

Everyone Get INSPIRED!
INSPIRE is a precious resource. It is sad to think that our state's government would want to allow such a indipsensable research database like INSPIRE to disappear. Many other states have "become inspired" by INCOLSA's "baby",and have created similar online databases. Aside from the multifaceted demographic which uses INSPIRE on a regular basis, this fact should be reason enough for the state's government to save INSPIRE! Everyone, Get INSPIRED!

INSPIRE is a foundation for growth
It is impossible for me to understand how we can Build Indiana, let alone Vigo County, without the full informational and intellectual resources of public libraries. Without resources such as INSPIRE, planning and development takes place on a foundation of sand.

INSPIRE = Love
I love this service. I am a non-tradiational
college student who is married with three
children. When I put them to bed, I am
able to access the databases from home
and write my research papers without
having to worry about babysitters or
leaving them to go to the Library. It is
invaluable to me and I use it a lot.

INSPIRE for Research
I utilize INSPIRE as a source for finding publications to cite for research papers and essays. I would have a hard time writing papers and finding sufficient, and accurate publications without the use of INPSPIRE Indiana. I love this service and I really hope that this site will be around to stay.

INSPIRE Offers Wonderful Possibilities
I love INSPIRE. I use it all the time to do research and to find articles for my students to read. It is a perfect example of how the Internet offers wonderful possibilities for education.

INSPIRE Makes a Huge Difference
I work with students in the WED Program at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College. Most are from small towns or rural areas; these students do not have easy access to libraries, and INSPIRE has made a huge difference in the amount and type of resources they can access for their academic work. We're praying that the state continues to fund it.

INSPIRE Invaluable to Education
As a faculty member who teaches distance education students, non-traditional students and others who use this database, I can tell you that INSPIRE is invaluable to the educational process. Without INSPIRE our students wouldn't have access to the many electronic databases and journals necessary for their education. These are students that do not have ready access to the University Library.
