Databases

Other relevant databases:

2. Education Source (EBSCO): Another comprehensive database for peer reviewed literature in education and related fields. Can be searched in combination with other ERIC and Psycinfo from the Choose Databases link at the top of the search screen

3. Google Scholar: Recommend for the following: To find articles that have cited a given article or book; to find articles related to a given article or book; to find the text of articles. To get access to all of the full text of articles that Hunter owns from off campus you have to go into Google Scholar from http://library.hunter.cuny.edu

4. Onesearch: The default search box from the library homepage. Well stocked with peer reviewed material in education. The downside is that it is easy to get swamped with results.

5. PsycINFO (EBSCO): provides comprehensive access to peer reviewed articles in the psychology literature. Can be searched in combination with other ERIC and Education Source from the Choose Databases link at the top of the search screen.

Off campus access to these and other databases: You can get the list of Hunter databases from http://library.hunter.cuny.edu. Click on the Databases tab. To get into a database from off campus simply click on the name of the database. You’ll then be prompted for your NetID.
