Research Consultation

America: History & Life and Historical Abstracts are the best places to get started finding historical articles in academic journals.  Both of them contain some full text, although they are primarily indexes.  For items that are not full-text enter the title of the journal or book into the title field of MARQCAT to see if we have it.  Both AH&L and HA index articles, book reviews, and dissertations.  Try the Quick Search link in this box if you're not sure where to start or if you have a multidisciplinary topic.

America: History & Life
   For scholarship on the United States and Canada.

Historical Abstracts
   For scholarship on the rest of the world outside of the United States and Canada.  Since coverage begins with scholarship on the early modern era (about 1400 onward), you will need to consult other sources for the middle ages.  See box below.

Quick Search in History and Political Science
   This feature searches several databases in history and political science at the same time, including AH&L and HA.  Be sure to check the box by History & Political Science before you search.

See Citation Tracking, Find Articles by Geographic Area and Middle Ages below.

Historians have often found books and articles by looking for items cited in other relevant sources.
