How to search:

• In EBSCOhost databases, clicking the "Peer Reviewed" box will limit your search to "scholarly" or "academic" articles.
• Type a few keywords in the "Find" box
• Use the narrowing options on the right and left to get more specific (limit the date range, etc.).

Finding the article itself (an abstract is a summary, not a source!):

• Many articles are in full text; PDF format is best.
• In EBSCOhost, "Linked Full Text" links mean that we have a subscription, but not through EBSCO. Click the link for more information.
• If we do not have full-text access to an article you need, check Full Text Finder (see the box below) to see if we subscribe in print or a different database. If we don't have a subscription, you may request the article through interlibrary loan.

To find a specific journal, such as the Clinical Social Work Journal, search for it in our Full Text Finder tool. Full Text Finder will link you to the appropriate database or tell you where to find it in our print periodicals collection located in the O'Hara Room on the lower level of Reeves Learning Commons.
