Not Sure Where to Start?
Try a multi-disciplinary database
Databases may look different, but they usually have similar features. Start with a keyword search. From there, you can limit your results by date or type of publication. Databases include information from a variety of sources - newspapers, magazines, scholarly journals, dissertations, conference proceedings, and more. You can also limit your results to retrieve the type of information you need.
