Periodical indexes (databases) identify and locate the articles published in magazines, journals and newspapers. Many databases also index essays, book chapters and monographs.
Some databases provide the complete article online (the full-text). When full-text articles are not provided, click on the Get it! Cornell link to determine if the library owns the periodical you need, or search the Library Catalog directly for the book or journal title.
Note: The Articles feature on the Library home page allows you to perform a very simple search across multiple databases. For more precise searching, it's best to search the databases individually. See the recommended databases below.
