Where to Search...

Where can you search for materials?

  • ONESearch: A great, broad place for starting out, since it searches for (almost) everything and includes many different formats. There are also many options for refining your searches.
  • General Databases: Narrowing down from ONESearch, these databases (usually) include primarily academic articles, but are still very broad in coverage of various subject areas.
  • Subject Specific Databases: For an even more specialized, narrower search, some databases only include articles in very specific disciplines.
  • Google Scholar/Web: Find out how to connect your web searches to the library using Libkey Nomad.
