Infographic: Top 10 databases

Cook Library offers a world of information online

In the pursuit of knowledge, it pays to know where to look. That’s where the library’s online databases can help, says Yvonne Lev, associate university librarian. “They’re enormous repositories of information,” she says. “Most of the top 10 databases are multidisciplinary or provide information needed in multiple disciplines. They also offer fulltext or have some links to full text, and they’re available on campus computers or accessible remotely via the Internet.” Small wonder they’re a big hit.
