What are some other sources I can use to find scholarly articles?

Emory has access to over 400 databases -- of these 400-plus databases, most of them are databases containing articles and/or citations to articles.

There are databases available that focus on specific disciplines. For example, the database, PsycInfo, contains articles and other materials primarily related to the psychological field.

Use the Databases @ Emory page to locate the best database for your research topic. Below is a short movie demonstrating how to efficiently use the Databases @ Emory page to locate a database specific to your topic.

While there is no standard “search interface” (how the search screen looks and how your search is interpreted), almost all databases offer standard features that will help reduce the confusion and enable you to perform effective searches.
