Library databases allow you to access articles that were originally published in magazines, newspapers, journals, and reference or book sources. These articles are not available freely on the internet and are often behind a paywall. Instead, the library pays to access this information to provide you with quality sources for your research. Information has value!
Scholarly articles in our databases are written by subject matter experts and go through a rigorous peer review process.
When you use Google for your research, you have to evaluate the information very carefully to make sure it is reliable. For more information, visit our research guide that explains how to use the SIFT Method to evaluate information.
