What is this?
The Marriott Library subscribes to many "all purpose" (cross-disciplinary) AND specialized research databases. These databases tap into resources generally not available to you via a Google search.
- You can browse the entire list of databases several ways ... BY TITLE ... BY SUBJECT ... and BY TYPE.
Recommended Databases
- CQ ResearcherEach week, an in-depth report on a single, current issue is added to the database. A wide range of topics are covered.
- Art Full TextFeatures full-text articles, abstracting and indexing of a number of peer-selected publications, podcasts, and page images. The subjects covered by this database include fine, decorative, and commercial art, photography, folk art, film, architecture, new artists, contemporary art, exhibition reviews, and feminist criticism. The database also indexes a growing selection of Latin American, Canadian, Asian, and non-Western art.
- JSTOR Archival Journals and Primary Sources Collection This link opens in a new windowJSTOR Archival Journals and Primary Sources Collection provides full-text access to all content that the Jstor publishes. The majority of the database is archival content, and new issues are added to the collection periodically. New content may not appear in JSTOR until months or years after its initial publication date, and update frequencies for journals vary by title and publisher. Artstor content will be migrated to the Jstor platform. Artstor content can be found at https://www.jstor.org/images.
