Selecting Databases

Databases

Sometimes one database just works better for a topic than another. Below are some databases recommended for KAAP Research.

Finding Full Text

When you use a library search tool to find sources, there are a few different scenarios you might encounter when trying to get the full text.

  • PDF Full Text or other full text link: Download the full text directly
  • Get It button: Click to try to connect to electronic full text. If we do not have full text, you'll be taken to a page where you can make an Interlibrary Loan request. Watch this video to learn more about Get It. 
  • Interlibrary Loan (ILL): If the library doesn't have a source you need, you can make an Interlibrary Loan request and we'll get it for you from another library. Watch this video to learn more about ILL.
