Find Periodical Articles

When you know that you want journal articles for your research, a good place to start is almost always the EBSCOhost databases. There are a number of databases available from EBSCO that you can search at one time, and there is an interdisciplinary database called Academic Search Premier that will cover most of the topics that you might be interested in.

It's often a good idea to search more than one database, so if you're still curious, you can try a few of those listed on the menu. You can also look at the Subject Guides available on the Reference & Research page. Within those broad subjects, we've noted some useful databases. Or if you want some expert guidance on which database to choose, you can ask a reference librarian.
