Since each database we subscribe to has a different collection of journals, e-books, and other resources, we subscribe from a variety of vendors. Each vendor has their own interface, which can cause some initial frustration. While the databases may look different depending on the platform, your search strategies and keywords should work the same in each.

If you ever need assistance navigating a specific database interface, you can always ask your friendly librarians for help! Our email is checked 7 days a week, and we are available via online chat during throughout the day during the week.
