A-Z Databases

EBSCOhost is a powerful online reference system accessible via the Internet. It offers a variety of proprietary full text databases and popular databases from leading information providers.

The comprehensive databases range from general reference collections to specially designed, subject-specific databases for public, academic, medical, corporate and school libraries.

Gale is our gateway to the Tennessee Electronic Library (TEL), a collection of full-text databases from the GaleGroup. Here you will find not only the Academic Onefile and Expanded Academic Index ASAP, but several other useful collections as well: Gale (Infotrac) Onefile, Business, the National Newspaper Index, Health Reference Center-Academic, General Reference Center Gold, Informe (Revistas en Espanol), and the Kid’s, Junior, and Student versions of Gale. Also, several subject collections are listed including: Professional Collection, Business, Health and Wellness Resource Center, and the National Newspaper Index.

“Journal Storage,” comes to TU as the result of a grant from the Appalachian College Association. This database allows users to examine full-text scholarly journal titles in the areas of Economics, Mathematics, Demography, Philosophy, Finance, Political Science, History, Sociology, Ecology, Higher Education, and Asian Studies. Please note that each journal has a “rolling-wall” of currency, so be sure to check the journals list to see dates covered.
