The library has several resources you can use to find articles on your topic of interest. If you need current information both EBSCO’s Academic Search Premier (ASP) and LexisNexis Academic contain thousands of articles from journals, newspapers and other sources. ASP allows you to search for your subject and limit the results to return a list of articles for which the full-text is available or to limit your search to peer-reviewed (academic) journals. LexisNexis allows you to search many newspapers in English and other languages as well as blogs and web publications.
If you are doing historical research on a topic, JSTOR is a good place to start. This is a database containing the complete text of many academic journals in both the humanities and the sciences. Most of the articles are pre-2004, with some going back into the 19th century. All of these databases* can be accessed from the library’s home page.
*Databases are available to students, faculty, and staff at Monmouth College.
