About Article Databases

All links on this page open in a new window.

"Articles" can be found in newspapers, magazines, or journals (collectively called periodicals).
Unlike some Web pages, an article is edited and checked for accuracy.
Some periodicals are available in print, but they are often licensed for electronic format, too.
Electronic periodicals are often called article indexes, or article databases, or online databases.
