You can also try searching Academic Search Premier, which is a good place to start your research. This database is multidisciplinary and contains a variety of newspaper, magazine, and peer-reviewed journal articles.

• When searching for names or multi-word phrases, use quotes around the terms. This tells the database you want to find articles with those two words together as a phrase.
  • For example: "World War II"
• Use "AND" to search for two or more concepts together.
  • For example: "World War II" AND "United States" AND women
• Use "OR" to search for alternate or related terms.
  • For example: "social movements" OR "social change"
