EBSCO databases
From WolfWikis
The NCSU Libraries subscribe to numerous databases through EBSCO. As of this writing, the interface looks something like what is pictured on the right (click for a larger image).
EBSCO databases tend not to be particularly strong in the sciences, but do cover a variety of subjects. You'll most likely get to the interface via a direct link to a database on the Libraries' web site, but you can choose other databases to search by clicking the Choose Databases link. We recommend you find appropriate databases by checking the Libraries' subject pages but choosing a database in this manner can allow you to search across multiple databases or discover new databases. Databases appropriate for the physical and mathematical sciences within EBSCO include:
- Computers and Applied Sciences Complete
- Academic Search Premier (general topics, includes newspapers and magazines)
- Textile Technology Index
The interface presents a lot of useful tools, some of which are discussed below.
