A database is an electronically organized catalog, index, and container that allow you to search for published information such as journal, newspaper, and magazine articles, as well as ebooks, streaming video and audio files.

• Most databases include summaries describing content, and many provide the full text of articles.
• Many cover specific disciplines or areas of study; while others are general or cross-disciplinary. 
• Databases provide scholarly and peer-reviewed sources that are appropriate to use for academic research and writing.
