Research with Pizzaz: Library Databases

Did you know the Library has over 270 databases that help identify the best research resources? Unlike search engines that perform a general search of the web, these databases are quality-controlled so that their results are reputable and timely. It is also a good idea to verify information in more than one source. Encyclopedias, for example, give a great overview of a topic but are not considered scholarly sources. This is especially true of Wikipedia which can be edited by almost anyone. Ask a librarian to help you identify the highest quality research resources in your field.
