About Databases

A library database is essentially an electronic collection of published works. 

  • Articles from journals, magazines, and newspapers
  • Scholarly peer-reviewed articles
  • Trade publications
  • Book reviews
  • Dissertations and theses
  • General reference information
  • Online versions and eBooks  

Remember when searching...

Remember, not all journals can be found in any one database, so you may have to go through the same search in each of these databases to find the right article.
