What is a database?
A database is a collection of magazine, journal, newspaper articles, abstracts, and other information, which has been checked for accuracy and reliability by publishers.
What are the benefits of using a database?
Most of the information found within a database collection is copyrighted and cannot be found using Google or other search engines. The information in the database is organized, searchable, reliable, and provides you with formatted citations!
