Finding Articles for Your Assignment

Finding relevant Articles:

To find journal articles for your assignment, you need to search databases. Here are the ones that we searched in class:


  • Academic Search Elite buttonguide
    This is a general database that covers a wide range of subject areas in limited depth. It's a great place to begin your research.
  • Make sure to use the subjectterms button and check off peer-reviewed to get the best results.
  • JSTORbuttonguide
    This database is a general database for the liberal arts. Its best feature is that everything that you find in it is full-text.
  • Try to search using the 'abstract'' option and limiting your results to 'journal articles'.
Finding copies of articles:
  • Inside any database, you can use the button to check and see if we have access to a journal article in print [Moravian College Holdings], online, or in microfilm[Moravian College Microform].

  • If we do not have access to an article from Reeves, you may fill out the form to Get an Article from Another Library. The cost is $0.10 per page. buttonguide
