Google Scholar allows you to search for "articles, theses, books, abstracts and court opinions, from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities and other web sites."
Searching in Google Scholar can help you get a better sense of the scope of the research available on your topic. Sometimes you'll be able to access the full text of articles in your results list, but often links lead to publishers' websites, where you will be charged a fee for full text. In those cases, use the library catalog (books+) search box below to find the article in a library database, or to request it through Interlibrary Loan.
Use OneSearch to search for articles in many of the library's databases at once, which may help you get a better sense of the scope of research available through the library on your topic. Limit your search to scholarly sources by selecting "Peer-reviewed Journals" under "Availability" in the filtering options.
