To find articles, search in the library's research databases. These databases index articles in thousands of journals by topic, and allow you to search for articles by keyword. (If you are in a dorm or off-campus, you will be asked to enter your name and library barcode number in order to access these databases, immediately after you click on the link to access the database through the library website. Enter your name as firstname lastname (put a space between your first and last name NOT a dot) and your 14 digit library barcode.)
These article databases are the best for searching for starting your search:
