Finding Articles & More directs you to databases that contain articles in journals, magazines, newspapers, and more.
Evaluating Sources directs you to our Source Evaluation Rubric (SCARAB Rubric), which will help you select quality, appropriate sources suitable for use in a college-level research paper.
