How To Access Databases

There are a couple of options for accessing NCC Library databases:

  1. Search the EBSCO Discovery Service box above, which locates articles in multiple library databases.

  2. Go the Library website and scroll down to the Research box, click on Learn More.

  3. On the right side click Go to Databases A to Z.

  4. The databases are listed alphabetically, but you can search by subject as well.

All off-campus access to databases requires a login with your NCC credentials.

Periodicals in Databases

The following library & information science periodicals can be found in either ProQuest or EBSCOhost. Please note that this is not a complete list of LIS journals that are available, but rather a list of the most popular, full-text periodicals that are available.

If you see the word "embargo," that means that full-text articles are delayed for a certain amount of time. For example, a 1-year embargo means that you won't be able to read the full-text of the article until a year after its publication date.
