Database for Literature

These databases might prove appropriate for research on literary topics. Of course, the best database for your particular need depends upon your research question. See full list of library databases.

Multi Discipline Databases

The following databases are more general in nature.

Interlibrary Loan

The Library can't own or subscribe to every piece of research ever created...that's why we have interlibrary loan!

If you need to use an article or book not in the library's collection, place an interlibrary loan request. The University Library can borrow materials from libraries across the globe.
