Articles & Databases

This page highlights resources for finding articles and using databases at Fordham University Libraries.

A periodical is a journal, magazine or newspaper published regularly on a schedule. Researchers can look up periodicals individually or search on a topic across many periodicals through a database.

Library databases may contain a combination of peer-reviewed articles as well as reports, book reviews, opinion pieces, datasets, images, videos, archival content, and more.

Unsure about the different kinds of articles? Popular versus scholarly? Peer-reviewed? Try this short tutorial from the library covering Articles & Databases to learn more or refresh your memory.
