Databases for English Composition

Most of the databases we have at the library are all included in Library Search, the main search box on the library's homepage. Some users prefer to search individual, subject-specific databases, one at a time, in order to do more precise searching. In most cases you do not need to search Library Search AND individual journal article databases.
