To find articles, you will need to use databases on our networked electronic resources page. This page can be confusing, so we will try to break it down for you.

The links on the networked electronic resources page are for various databases to find journal articles, either full text online, or in print on our shelves. If you do not know what database to use, try one of the more general databases that indexes articles on all kinds of topic, such as:

• ProQuest
• Infotrac Web OneFile
• FirstSearch
• LexisNexis

If you have a more specialized topic, you may benefit from using a database that specifically indexes articles on a discipline such as literature, history, medicine or psychology. Stop by the library's reference desk for suggestions on which database to use.

If you have more questions, check out Searchpath, our online web tutorial. There is a section on how to find articles.

Enter the networked electronic resources page, and start your article search!
