This list provides links to essential databases to find secondary scholarship within various disciplines that deal with place and space. In many cases, as a researcher, you want to explore how other disciplines approach a similar topic. For example, a research paper on the role of the forest in early Robin Hood tales might also want to search for scholarship in history and philosophy by using the Historical Abstracts and the Philosopher’s Index databases, in addition to Academic Search Premier and the MLA International Bibliography.
This multi-disciplinary database provides active full text for more than 3,100 journals, including active full text for nearly 2,750 peer-reviewed journals.
