Lipscomb Library subscribes to dozens of academic research databases. Below are a few standard multi-disciplinary databases. Check out the Database A-Z List or the Research Guides to find more databases, including those that are subject-specific.
You can use a research database to search for academic literature by topic. Lipscomb Library subscribes to many databases; Academic Search Complete is a good general database to start with (the video below demonstrates how to use it). You can see our full list of databases in the Database A-Z List, or look at our subject guides to research to find recommended databases by subject area. For more on using the databases to find scholarly journal articles, see our guide on Using the Databases, or ask a librarian for help!
If you're looking for a particular journal (such as The Journal of Academic Publishing), you can use the search box on the homepage to search for the title. You can also use the journal search feature to see which journals you can access in each academic area. For instance, if you're looking for journals that publish content on American history, try a keyword search for "American history."
