Journal Articles in Library Databases

Use your CMU ID to log-in to these databases from off-campus. Some may contain full-text of the articles, but if it does not, use the button to search our other holdings for it, or use ILLiad to request a PDF of the article be sent to you.

 

Use these databases to find secondary sources, which are a great way of tracking down primary sources. Many of these will be scholarly articles, and some from journals about history.
