In addition to searching Research@UWW, you are encouraged to search some individual databases (collections) in order to find additional articles and other sources on your research topic. This is because only some of the content (articles, ebooks, data, etc.) from our databases can be found in Research@UWW. You will likely find more information by searching in multiple places.
Andersen Library subscribes to many databases that can be used to locate periodical (journal, magazine and newspaper) articles, as well as book chapters, dissertations and the like. Other databases the library has contain legal cases, business information, and more. Online databases and Research@UWW are two ways to find recent articles. If you need older articles, or cannot find any articles on your topic using Research@UWW or online databases, Ask a Librarian in person, over the phone, by email, or through chat for assistance. Databases and Research@UWW list articles that may or may not be owned by the Library. Databases, Research@UWW, and the full text content they contain can be accessed both on and off-campus.
