To search for articles from all the magazines, journals, and newspapers the libraries subscribe to, use the libraries' article databases. Choose the best database(s) to search based on your topic. Some databases cover a variety of subject areas, while others are more specialized.
If you don't know which database to use, click on "Articles/Databases" on the libraries' homepage, then scan the subjects listed on the Databases by Subject categories. Choose one (or two).
