Why Use Library Databases?

When you Google something, you are searching the "visible web," the portion of the World Wide Web that is readily available to the general public and searchable with web search engines. These searches may not locate the scholarly sources you need to write college-level papers. Why? Because scholarly/academic publishers charge $$ to make this information available to subscribers. Luckily, your library subscribes to 100+ databases using a portion of your tuition fee.
