The next database is good if you have a research topic related to national security.

Linking Research

This next database is a citation index. It covers multiple subjects, and it connects articles that cite each other, which are likely to be on the same topic.

Interlibrary Loan (Articles)

If you cannot locate a journal article, use the Interlibrary Loan Forms.  A librarian will locate a library that owns the material and will send for what you need.

Before placing a request, check the Citation Finder to make sure Beeghly does not have a copy.
