Academic databases are specialist search tools which index a wide selection of scholarly sources such as journal articles, conference papers, book chapters and more.

They can be multidisciplinary or subject specific and the advanced search functionality and filters enable thorough and precise searching of academic content. This is likely to give you a more manageable set of relevant results than StarPlus.

Databases will be useful as you embark on independent research.
