SUNY Geneseo has access to over 200 databases. Some databases, such as Academic Search Complete, ArticleFirst, JSTOR, and ProQuest Research Library are multidisciplinary, meaning they contain material on a wide range of subjects. These databases can be a good place to begin your research regardless of your topic.
However, to continue your research you may want to check out additional databases that contain materials more specific to your discipline.
