Articles, which you can access through databases and through the library's catalog, will report on specific research done by scholars in the field. When you know your topic or research question, dig into articles for information that will support your ideas or answer your questions.
These are your go-to databases for historical research.
These databases either focus on particular topics or aspects of historical research, or have a broader scope than the databases above.
