How to identify academic sources
Ask us
Finding academic sources
OneSearch is the library's main discovery system. Use OneSearch to find books, articles, and many other types of resources. Search it below, or from the library homepage.
The library subscribes to hundreds of research databases about different disciplines and subjects. Use research databases in addition to OneSearch to find focused academic resources on your topic. The databases usually include journal articles, but some include many other types of academic sources.
You can use more specific keywords in research databases than you often can in OneSearch, so you can often uncover sources more directly in a database than you can in OneSearch. Many databases include material not listed in OneSearch. See below for recommended databases for GNDR 3100.
