Wide variety of scholarly literature, newspapers, magazines, and more covering topics from a wide variety of disciplines. A great place to start searching for sources on your subject!
Start by brainstorming keywords and search terms. Use subject headings or descriptors to help generate search terms. Adding a synonym or two can also help unlock results.
When you find a good article, look at its References or Works Cited list. It's a treasure map to other sources that may be relevant to your topic.
If you see an article you'd like to read but you don't see a PDF for the article, click on the "GET IT" button. This will open a new window that will allow you to see if Brandeis has access to the article through another database or if Brandeis has the article in print. If Brandeis doesn't have the article online or in print, you'll see an option to request the article through Interlibrary Loan.
