EAGLEsearch

EagleSearch is a powerful research tool that compiles results from many of the library's databases in one big search! You can easily narrow down using filters for things like date of publication, type of information (like scholarly journals), and more. Everything you need is in one search bar, which is why it is sometimes referred to as the "Google" of library searches. Use EagleSearch tab from our homepage or try it from here.

Choosing a Database

If you are finding too many results or not relevant search results in EAGLEsearch, another strategy is to choose an individual database.  Which one you choose will vary depending on your topic.  Individual databases are listed in Databases A to Z alphabetically, along with a description of what the database includes.  Some cover many subjects and disciplines like ProQuest Central, while some are very specific in topic, like  AIAA Aerospace Research Central.

We have approximately 100 different databases and resources available!
