A Database is a collection of articles, book chapters and other information from reliable sources. All of the resources in these databases come from magazines, newspapers, journals and books. Although they are delivered through the Internet, they are not considered "Internet Sources" by your instructors. Articles from databases may be printed, saved to a drive or emailed for later use.
Most of the below content is also indexed in the main Library Search on our homepage. It may be beneficial to search an individual database when you are getting too many irrelevant results in our Library Search.
