Finding Articles and Curriculum Guides with SCC Library Indexes

The following databases are available from the library Web site. These can be accessed off campus by students, faculty, and staff of SCC with a valid ID number. Search the databases for articles from magazines, journals, and/or newspapers.

ERIC includes citations from educational journals and Department of Education documents. Many of the journals are available in the SCC Library and there are some linked full-text articles. There are also some linked full-text ERIC documents but they also can be obtained through interlibrary loan. You may limit your search to either documents or journals on the search menu.
