A library database is essentially an electronic collection of published works. Most library databases index articles from journals, magazines, and newspapers, and some focus on specific disciplines while others are multidisciplinary (and therefore cover many different topics).
There are lots of databases out there and each include different resources, so it's often helpful to search more than one.
Databases help you to:
- Search for content by keyword, title, author and more.
- Add limits to your search to help narrow down your results; limit by publication date, source type and more.
- Generate citations for your research papers.
If you're not sure where to begin, the search box on the library website is set up to searchwithin multiple databases, so it's often the best place to start.
