There are several ways to conduct research on the Libraries website, from the main catalog search to specific databases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Search Discovery<\/a> allows you to search across the Library’s collections and includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nBooks and journals (in print), eBooks, archival materials and media owned by Clarkson University Library.<\/li>\n\n\n\nWorldCat<\/li>\n\n\n\nResearch databases like Business Insights Essentials, CINAHL, APA PsycNET<\/li>\n\n\n\nE-journal collections like JSTOR and Science Direct.<\/li>\n\n\n\nLegal<\/a>, government<\/a>, and company information<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\nNote:<\/strong> Search Discovery does not include everything we own! See More Resources below for additional info. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/span>Using Discovery Search<\/h4><\/div>\nDiscovery Search<\/a> retrieves all of the items it can find that meet your search terms, whether from individual publishers or from open-access scholarly repositories. Additionally, your search will include items not currently owned by Clarkson University Libraries. “Held by Other Libraries Worldwide” indicates an item can be requested through Interlibrary Loan (ILL)<\/a>.\u00a0It’s also great when you know the title of the item you’re looking for and need to quickly pull up the article, find a call number, or submit a request for ILL. <\/p>\n\n\n\nDiscovery Search is valuable for your introductory research, as it will show *some* of the results related to your search topics. These resources provide the starting points for additional research, showing the terms associated with your research question and the kinds of databases you might want to shift your focus to. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<\/path><\/path><\/svg><\/span>More Resources<\/h4><\/div>\nNot everything<\/strong> we own is included in the Discovery Search<\/a>, so you may wish to search individual research databases using the list of Databases<\/a>. See the “Databases Included” list below for a complete list of resources indexed in the Discovery Search platform. You can also look at the Databases by Subject<\/a> for the databases tailored to the discipline you’re working in. <\/p>\n\n\n\nNot sure which database to search?

Discovery Search is valuable for your introductory research, as it will show *some* of the results related to your search topics. These resources provide the starting points for additional research, showing the terms associated with your research question and the kinds of databases you might want to shift your focus to. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Not everything<\/strong> we own is included in the Discovery Search<\/a>, so you may wish to search individual research databases using the list of Databases<\/a>. See the “Databases Included” list below for a complete list of resources indexed in the Discovery Search platform. You can also look at the Databases by Subject<\/a> for the databases tailored to the discipline you’re working in. <\/p>\n\n\n\nNot sure which database to search?
