Key Databases

This list of databases is the library's "best bets" for research within this subject area.

This database covers all aspects of business continuity and disaster recovery. 

This database contains business-related publications including scholarly journals providing peer-reviewed articles. 

This full-text database provides definitive intelligence resources for security and threat analysis. It covers regional conflict, terrorism, domestic security, and risk management.

This extensive database includes materials on most academic disciplines, and thousands of the publications are peer-reviewed journals.

Academic OneFile provides peer-reviewed journals plus trade/professional publications, magazines, and other information sources that support a broad range of subjects and programs of study. 

Journals

The journals listed here have been purchased individually and may not be available within the library databases.

Disasters is a major, peer-reviewed, quarterly journal reporting on all aspects of disaster studies, policy and management. 

The Journal of Emergency Management is edited, written and peer reviewed by a nationally recognized team of the country's foremost, hands-on EM experts. They include top professionals from the public and private sectors who offer real world experience and practical solutions, and leading academics who provide perspective and analysis on the latest research and studies. Together, they bring you the most thorough, relevant and useful source of information on emergency management.

The purpose of Risk, Hazards, & Crisis in Public Policy (RHCPP) is to provide a forum for research and commentary that examines societies’ understanding of and measures to address risk, hazards, and crises, how public policies do and should address these concerns, and to what effect.
