There are general databases such as JSTOR and Proquest, but there are also subject specific databases or indexes. These indexes are particularly good for accessing the scholarly literature of a particular discipline, i.e., articles written by religion scholars, historians, anthropologists, or other kinds of researchers. Be sure to try multiple databases while researching.
Use the Find It button 
in these indexes to find out if the journal articles are available in the Tri-College libraries. If the journal is not listed in Tripod, use the Find It request form or the Interlibrary Loan Request Form on Tripod to have a copy of the article sent to you from another library.
