When to use CCC Library tools

The type of information you need, who authors it, and how you can filter and refine your searches dictates where you want to search.

It is often more effective to search for information using a CCC Library tool when you are looking for:

  1. The ability to search with topic-specific detail and granularity
  2. Scholarly journal articles
  3. Popular magazine articles
  4. Newspaper articles
  5. Streaming videos
  6. Books
  7. eBooks
  8. Historical information
  9. Any type of information not listed here that typically costs money, is kept behind a paywall, or isn't ethically found for free online - CCC Library will try to get it to you for free
  10. Help from a real human and not an AI bot

Based on your experiences and knowledge of your topics, what types of information would you add to this list?

Find scholarly* articles

* Oh fun! A disclaimer! Not all articles in CCC Library databases are scholarly, accurate, or good for academic research. Use your information evaluation skills to determine if the articles you find meet your needs. Your CCC Librarian can help you with this!
