The databases below provide access to articles, many in full-text.

E-Journals are online full-text scholarly (academic, peer reviewed, refereed) publications to which the library subscribes.
If the full-text of an article is not available directly in a database such as America: History and Life, then click on the Check for Full Text UW button to find out if the UW has an electronic or print copy of the journal article you need. If there is no button, then check UW Libraries Search for the title of the journal to determine if the UW owns a copy.
