Finding Articles
- Academic Search PremierAcademic Search Premier is great because it is a multi-disciplinary database. Notice that you can limit your searches so that they only return articles from scholarly (peer reviewed) journals.
- MLA International BibliographyThis is one of the most comprehensive databases for literary studies. One great trick is to put the name of a poem, story, book, or author's name into one search box and then select "Subject Heading (All)" from the drop-down box that normally says "All fields." All the resulting articles will then be about that poem, story, book, or author.
