Have Skills That Travel! Remember, to get help selecting a database: go to the Databases page and note the subject areas that are listed on the left-hand side. There are separate groupings for business databases, health/medicine databases, newspaper databases, etc. This should help you select the most suitable database for your project. The cross-disciplinary databases are listed at the top, in the All Disciplines category. Here, too, you will find a general encyclopedia and a biographical database with information on hundreds of thousands of people from all time periods throughout the world. You now know how to do a search in one database, Academic Search Premier. But our databases come from many different producers. So won't they all look different and have their own special features? |
| To a certain extent, yes. But once you've learned the basics, it will be like driving a car you've borrowed from a friend. You know that there's a switch to turn on the lights or the radio--you just need to locate the controls. Even though they may look different, article databases have similar features. Check for Help screens or ask a friendly librarian. | |
