Similar to OneSearch, A-Z Databases has filters that let you select databases by Subjects and Database Types. Databases are organized collections of information or data, such as journal articles, reports, books, videos, or images that can be searched to retrieve information. When looking for a specific source, use the All Database Types drop-down menu. Otherwise, databases are listed in alphabetical order by name. Take a look at A-Z Databases to become familiar with the limiters and filters.
