Orientation for Rhetoric: Finding Journal Articles

Very General online orientation to use before Librarians work with Rhetoric classes. The idea here is to cover basic concepts so the librarian focus on specific needs of Rhetoric classes.

Tips

  • Choose the right database for what you need. General databases cover a lot of ground, but subject specific databases like Sociological Abstracts, Pubmed, ERIC or PsycInfo might save you time and get you better results.
  • Many databases have a way to limit results to scholarly articles or peer-reviewed articles.
  • Don't limit yourself only to full text articles in your database - let InfoLink find more options for you.
