Getting Started with Pop Culture

Welcome to our Pop Culture library guide!

On the blue tabs above, you can search for books (including our large ebook collection), articles, and videos. Below, I'll suggest some databases, and some strategies if you're not finding much on your topic.

Let's go!

Featured Databases

If you're getting too many results in the ONESearch, you might try these databases:

Communications and Mass Media Collection
Scholarly and other types of articles relating to communication, with a focus on media and business applications.
Communication Source

Scholarly and other types of articles relating to communication, including media studies, linguistics, speech pathology, rhetoric.
Kanopy
Streaming video collection. Currently licensed titles can be found in ONESearch. Other streaming video databases are also available. Kanopy is not supported on mobile device browsers (requires an app). See their related support page for more information on supported browsers/devices.
Project MUSE - Standard Collection
