How can I search multiple databases at the same time?
Answer
Yes, there is a way to search multiple databases at one time. Generally, we recommend doing a search on the library's homepage using the Discovery search box when just starting out with your research or class assignment. It functions like a Google search in that it searches across many of our databases and the library catalog.
Finally, if you prefer to meet with a research librarian who can give you a much deeper dive into searching and using our resources, you can set up an appointment with one. Here is a list of our research librarians organized by their subject areas. We especially recommend that faculty and graduate students contact their subject specialists when working on major research projects.
