The University of Delaware Library has more than 70 Library Networked Databases available to University of Delaware faculty, students and staff. Some databases provide references and summaries of journal articles and others are full text and contain entire articles. "Networked" means the electronic information is accessible at designated library workstations, in UD microcomputing sites or from microcomputers in residence halls, offices, off campus and at home that can access UD's computing network via the World Wide Web. From home, use University of Delaware PPP connection and Netscape, or if using a non-UD Internet Service Provider access the Web Proxy Server (see http://www.udel.edu/help/ for instructions).
A database exists for virtually every subject. Some databases are general and broadly cover many subjects. Examples of databases that cover many subjects are Expanded Academic ASAP, Britannica Online, LEXIS-NEXIS UNIVerse, Current Contents and OCLC FirstSearch Article1st. More than a dozen databases are "full text" and include entire articles.
Other databases focus on a particular subject area, such as MEDLINE for medicine, ERIC for education, ABI/INFORM for business, Sociofile for sociology and Agricola for agriculture.
