EBSCO
This comprehensive set of databases provides information in a variety of academic disciplines. It has articles that are full text or full image from thousands of periodicals. It covers general topics and has specialized databases for several disciplines such as psychology, business, health, religion, literature, education and many other areas of study.

JSTOR
JSTOR offers researchers the ability to retrieve high-resolution, scanned images
of journal issues and pages as they were originally designed, printed, and
illustrated. The journals archived in JSTOR span many disciplines.
JSTOR is not a current issues database. Because of
JSTOR's archival mission, there is a gap, typically from 1 to 5 years, between
the most recently published journal issue and the back issues available in JSTOR.
For 2007, HSU
has access to Arts and Sciences I, additional JSTOR collections will be added
over the next several years.
