Library Databases

The UWW libraries subscribe to many databases you can use to research and locate articles. Use the databases linked below if you would like to do more targeted searching for your topic. Read the description for each database to determine if it would be a good fit for your topic - some are general and others contain information for a specific subject(s). See the Search Tips tabs if you need help getting started coming up with your search terms. Please get in touch with a librarian if you would like assistance in searching for information. Find more databases by selecting the Articles/Databases tab from the box on the Library homepage and choosing a subject or database name.

News articles and transcripts can be found in many databases, however, the following databases have the most available to you: 

Databases (Find It)

In most UWW article databases, if there is no full text available for an item in that database for the item you want, you will see a Find It button button or link. Use Find It to determine if we have the full text elsewhere or if you can get a copy from another library.
