General databases contain content from a variety of subject areas and publication types. This will allow you to look at your research from a wide perspective. Be sure to use the search refinements each database may offer including: date, document type, and source type.
Use "Add / Reorder --> Database" to add assets from the library's electronic resources to the guide. Be sure to check if an item is a database asset before adding it as a "Link"
Unlike the general databases, subject-specific databases generally focus solely on journal articles as a publication type and do not have a broad, multidisciplinary approach. This list contains links to a few of the core databases in a variety of subject areas. For deeper research into a specific subject area, consult the research guide for that area or contact the subject librarian.

Keeping up with journal literature is the best way to stay up-to-date on the current research trends in the field. Because SUBJECT is a broad inter-disciplinary field, you may want to target a few journals and set up RSS feeds or alerts for others. Google Scholar is a great place to begin with alerts.
Accessibility note about RSS feeds: They break often and can become "keyboard traps" for individuals that do not use a mouse to navigate through a webpage. They should be used cautiously and judiciously. If you need support with this, use the LibGuides Working Groups Contact Form (Qualtrics).
