Databases (also called article databases, index or index/abstract databases) PsycINFO, PsycARTICLES, Academic Search Premier, CINAHL, PubMed, Medline, ProQuest Dissertations & Theses. Getting the actual article Some databases – (a) provide the actual article within the database – (b) link out to the article somewhere outside of the database – (c) do not provide the article (in which case one needs to use interlibrary loan ILL) Don’t forget to get the citations 27
