CIVX_Achievement: Civics Research

Library databases index edited, published material, often scholarly, and collected for an educational use, and subscribed to by your school because it is judged to be useful to the curriculum. Library databases are more focused on scholarly books and articles, and provide more of them, than the open web.  Several databases are listed below.  Click on the image for each database to access that database.

Google Scholar is a search engine that provides links to full-text articles to which Spiva Library subscribes or to articles made freely available by the publisher. It also provides articles from academic publishers, professional societies, preprint repositories and scholarly articles posted on the web. In addition, many articles are available when MSSU has a subscription which would work with EZ Proxy. Finally, Google Scholar provides citations along with abstracts of the article if it is protected by copyright.  The Google Scholar search box is found below.
