Social Work

Databases provide a way to search for articles on particular subjects in magazines or journals. Databases may include full text of articles or they may only include abstracts (summaries and citations) for articles.

• A general article database might include1500 journals or magazines addressing many subject areas.
• A specialized article database might only cover a few hundred journals, but will focus on one particular subject area.

Use these specialized databases to find articles on topics related to the study of social work, use the database articles search box above, or use the Discovery search on the Library home page to search other databases.
