Below you will find both direct links and links to help guides for some databases (or portions thereof) that are primarily used by college and university
faculty, graduate students, and other upper-level researchers. Many more databases than these are potentially useful to researchers, of course, but these databases are listed separately here because they are generally more useful for graduate students and professionals than undergraduates, and some may
require additional steps for users to gain familiarity with them.
- ISI Web of Knowledge (All Disciplines)
Includes Science Citation Index (1980-present), Social Science Citation Index
(1956-present) and Arts & Humanities Index (1975-present), which contain the references
cited by the authors of the articles. You can use these references to do cited reference
searching. A cited reference search enables you to find articles that cite a previously
published work. In addition, you can search the three databases by topic, author, source
title, and address by using the General Search and Advanced Search options.
- MLA List of Periodicals (English and Humanities)
The above link is actually to the main MLA Bibliography database. Once there,
look for the "MLA Directory of Periodicals" link - the rightmost link directly
under the tabs. It contains varying amounts of information for thousands of journal titles
in Literature and related Humanities fields.
- RefWorks (All Disciplines)
Web-based citation manager that allows users to import, store and organize
citations from various sources, and format papers/bibliographies automatically
in a variety of citation styles.
- WRDS (Business and Finance)
Access to financial, economic, and marketing data sources, including recent
and historical financial data from COMPUSTAT, and current and historical
daily stock data from CRSP.
