While you connect automatically to our subscribed databases on campus, off campus access requires you to verify your affiliation with UD. Before entering a database, a log-in screen will appear requesting you to log in using your UD ID and password. For more information about off campus access, click here. Still experiencing issues?

Google Scholar is a great resource if you are looking to find broad articles across the field. While on campus, Google Scholar will recognize and automatically tell you if UD has access to the article, then link to the article directly.
Keep in mind, for a more accurate search, conduct your research through the Library's website.
Journals give you the ability to search for articles on a specific topic or event. It can be an easier way to find relevant information because you are usually not sifting through a large pool of results. If you visit the E-Journals page, you can bring up a list of all the journals with subject content related to this area or you can narrow down by region. You can also search for a specific journal title from the E-Journals page or in DELCAT.

The East Asian Gateway Service (EAGS), which was established with funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Service, is a transcontinental interlibrary loan partnership.
The EAGS, administered by the East Asian Library at the University of Pittsburg, focuses on free delivery of full-text Chinese and Korean language academic publications to researchers. The EAGS delivers Chinese documents to any individual researcher for research and teaching purposes or non-profit organizations who cannot find the needed item in any U.S. libraries. However, the service for Korean documents offers delivery to the University of Pittsburgh faculty and students only.
Finding articles within databases and journals is not the same process you would use to conduct a search in Google or an internet search engine. You cannot type in a question, but rather need to choose specific keywords and phrases to find results. These tips are similar to how you would search for material in DELCAT.
Helpful Ways to Search:
Use the Advanced Search option in databases and journals to narrow down by date, region, type of document, and more!
