News and Article Databases

Why use a library database for your research?

  1. Save time by searching in one place instead of numerous websites across the web
  2. Gain access to paywall sites like Wall Street Journal, New York Times, or Bloomberg Businessweek
  3. Articles found in a library database often have a citation generator tool!
