Worldcrunch is a curated collection of international news stories from over 40 countries and 15 languages, translated into English by multilingual journalists. Based out of Paris, France, Worldcrunch was launched in 2011 and was traditionally focused on individual subscribers. However, this year Worldcrunch is prioritizing institutional site licenses. Worldcrunch is designed as a day-to-day news source rather than as a research database. Searching, printing, and downloading capabilities are limited, but Worldcrunch provides many ways to browse for articles, and an advanced search feature is forthcoming. Thankfully, no advertisements are visible to subscribers, unlike with many US-based newspapers. Pricing is reasonable for both individuals and institutions, and the insight into international news is unbeatable. This comes from the combination of news stories written by local journalists, English translation by multilingual journalists, and an editorial staff with a keen eye for stories that have a commonality to readers across all cultures.

The creators at Coherent Digital, parent company of Policy Commons, state that their mission is to “tame wild content,” arguing that digitally published information from nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), intergovernmental organizations (IGOs), municipal agencies, and others have a short life span and are often lost when organizations close or new reports supersede old ones. Launched in 2020, Policy Commons has quickly expanded beyond its original structure to include three modules. The original content of Policy Commons is now housed in the module Global Think Tanks, which is joined by new modules North American City Reports and World Cities. Users may search all available content either through the main search or by selecting individual modules. Coherent Digital’s other products include Mindscape Commons, Africa Commons, and History Commons, among others. The content varies in both topic and currency, making it potentially useful for a variety of disciplines; and the ease of access to materials that would be difficult or impossible to find on the open Internet adds value to this resource. All collected content is discoverable through a comprehensive, user-friendly search platform, which includes comprehensive filters and Boolean operators and enables browsing of subjects or organizations.

SAGE Video: Counseling & Psychotherapy from Sage Publications Inc. is a collection of over 130 hours of streaming video focused on topics to provide educational training to prepare students entering the mental health profession. With a large portion of the collection being proprietary in nature and published within the past 10 years, users will find stable access to relatively current videos. Users will appreciate the flexibility to either purchase or subscribe to the collection in its entirety. The Sage Knowledge platform is intuitive, and the playback functionality of videos and the value-added features such as video clipping, creating playlists, and downloading and citing transcripts are user-friendly. Nearly half, but not all, of the collection provides psychotherapy demonstrations. Those who would like a product dedicated to psychotherapy demonstrations, particularly with well-known master therapists, may find Psychotherapy.net or APA PsycTherapy to be more suitable. In particular, users who would like the option to earn continuing education credits along with expanded choices for customized packages of selected videos may find Psychotherapy.net to be a preferred option. In comparison, APA PsycTherapy may be of interest to academic users seeking a range of available platforms along with a more robust collection of psychotherapy demonstration videos.
