  1. Finding Articles In the Databases

  2. DATABASES The databases are where you go to search for either articles or for article citations.

  3. FULL TEXT ARTICLES • Many of the databases contain ARTICLES IN FULL TEXT • However, a FULL TEXT database does not mean that everything in the database is available in FULL TEXT

  4. If an article is not FULL TEXT in a database you may be able to find it FULL TEXT in another database.
