Embedded Librarian

Why should you use library databases for research?

• The scholarly articles in library databases are typically peer-reviewed, which ensures that experts have verified the credibility of the information. 

• You can also avoid paywall restrictions. Because the library pays for subscriptions to the databases, you will have more access to full-text articles.

A-Z Database- To access an alphabetical list of available library databases, click on the A-Z Database button on the library homepage. Click on a letter to jump to that section or use the subjects along the left side to narrow it down. 

Research Guides - You can also find curated lists of resources and databases by topic or course!

Click on "Resources" and look for the Research Guides link.

A great database to use as you start your research is Proquest Central .

Proquest Central is a multi-subject database that covers a wide variety of topics, so if you only use one database, use this one!
