Open Access Databases

Open access databases are databases that are freely available on the internet. It does not you cost anything to search or view their contents. These are excellent resources if you are unable to find specific research in the databases LWC subscribes to currently. Below are examples of some open access databases available.

Google Scholar

Google Scholar is useful when you are struggling to find the specific research you need in the databases Lindsey Wilson subscribes to OR if you want to find a copy of a specific article that Lindsey Wilson doesn't have. Google Scholar can help expand your research! 

If you find something you like in Google Scholar, check to see if you can access the entire document. Sometimes, you can access a document for free!  If you hit a pay wall, DO NOT PURCHASE THE DOCUMENT. Try to find it in one of our general databases first: EBSCOJSTOR, or ProQuest. If you can't access the document in one of those databases, copy the citation into an email to InterLibrary Loan (ILL)..

Email the library with additional questions.
