Resources for Faculty

If you don't know the name of a specific database and want recommendations, then go to the appropriate Research Guides.

If you want to see if we have a particular database, then you can browse our Databases A-Z list.

The WSU Health Sciences Library may have a database that we do not, such as BIOSIS Citation Index. However, due to licensing restrictions, you must go to the WSU Health Sciences Library in-person to access the WSU databases.

EWU Library Catalog Title Search -- Search to see if we have a particular periodical (journal, magazine or newspaper) online, in print or microfilm. Type in the name of the journal, magazine or newspaper in the box where it says "journal of". (Just erase and type in your title.)

• Online access = we have the title online. Just click Online access to see a list of databases with date ranges. Click on the name of the database to view the journal.
• Available at = we have it physically (in print and/or microfilm). Note the location and the call number. Click Available at to view the years we have available.

E-Journals -- Alphabetical list of the journals, magazines and newspapers we have online in our databases. It will not show if we have it in print or microfilm in the library.

If we do not have the periodical you are looking for, you may request specific articles via Interlibrary Loan.

There are two ways to locate the full article if you have citation information (such as one of the references in an article).

1. Try looking for the article in the EWU Library Catalog

The EWU Library Catalog knows about millions of articles, so the odds are good (but not 100%) that it will find a record for your article and tell you if we have it online, in paper, or if you'll have to do an Interlibrary Loan. Just go to the EWU Library Catalog and copy/paste the title of the article you want. If you get no results, click the box "Include results with no full text" in the upper left corner.

2. If the first step doesn't work, then you need to see if we have the source (journal, magazine, newspaper) of the article. Just use the link below.
