Finding Scholarly Articles:
MIT
Libraries subscribe to several relevant databases; some contain
full text, others contain citations & abstracts only. You
may want to search more than one to be most comprehensive. (See Locate Full Text for guidance in tracking down the documents you need.)
Don't limit yourself to the databases listed below! Many others in different disciplines (e.g., art, film, or music) might also be useful for your research. Use VERA (Virtual Electronic Resource Access) to find additional resources.
