Best Places to Start

UCSB Library subscribes to hundreds of research databases, which are excellent tools to use for finding scholarly articles. Below is a selection of recommended databases for research in Comp Lit, many of which contain the full text of articles. If you do not see a link to the full text, use the Get it at UC                         link to find a different access point or to order a copy through Interlibrary Loan.

The complete list of databases, including descriptions, is here: A-Z list of databases.
