Databases, Journals, and Articles

A database contains journals in which articles are published.

Think of it like this: Picture a rose, any color you like; the petals are the articles, the rose itself is the journal, and the database is the vase that holds the roses. Journals are the volumes that contain specific articles and databases are the storehouses for the journals.

To discover articles on topics of interest to you, search our databases - listed by subject here.
If you need to find a specific article and you know the title of the journal in which it is published, search for it in Library Journal Titles.
