Key Databases

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

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. 

The General OneFile database provides multi-disciplinary coverage in journals, periodicals and newspapers as well as searchable transcripts for various radio programs and video files. 

This database furnishes access to information on current social issues in the form of reference and news articles, interactive maps, infographics, videos, audio files, and primary source documents. 

Videos

Films on Demand houses a collection of streaming video titles from both academic and mainstream producers such as films for the Humanities and Sciences, PBS, A&E, History Channel, BBC, National Geographic, and others.

The best part about Films on Demand?  You can share videos from Films on Demand in your courses without worrying about copyright restrictions.

To share Films on Demand videos with your students, select "Share" beneath the video and copy the "Record URL" link:
