Library Information for Faculty

Databases

 

The library subscribes to over 270 databases.

You can leverage our digital collection of books, case studies, articles, reports, streaming media and more for your course resources (e.g., textbook alternatives, supplemental readings, research assignment sources).

You can access our digital collection through the Library Search on our homepage. Because some database content is not covered by Library Search, you may need to go directly to certain individual databases. See the  list of databases not covered by Library Search and search those databases directly for access.
