Get to Know the Database (G2KD) is a hands-on workshop series designed to build your confidence and skills in using research databases. Each session highlights a single database, guiding you through its key features, search techniques, and best practices. 

Historical Abstracts is the definitive index of literature covering world history (excluding North America) from the 15th century to the present. America: History and Life is the definitive index of literature covering the history and culture of the United States and Canada from prehistory to the present. Together, these databases are the best bet for finding secondary sources for any history class, and are also useful for related disciplines like Political Science, Art History, Sociology, and Geography.
