SUBJECT LIST OF DATABASES
Click on the links listed below to access databases--which may provide not only traditional citations but also texts, data, images, audio, or video. Some databases listed below provide the full texts of cited articles. To find which databases contain the full texts of articles from particular journals (with inclusive dates), consult the Grasselli Library A-to-Z Electronic Journal List.
Descriptions of these databases are available on our complementary Alphabetical List of Databases.
Remote Access: If you are JCU Faculty, Staff, Administration, or current Student, you can access most of the electronic databases listed here when you are using a computer off-campus. You must have a valid Grasselli Library account and a JCU ID. You will be asked to supply your name and the 13 digit barcode number from the back of your ID. If you have never used your ID card to check out books from the library, you may need to stop by or call the library circulation desk at ext. 4233 to activate your barcode number.
