The best way to search all of the databases at once is using DUQSearch, the search box on our main page. However, some databases don’t work well with DUQSearch, so it is often a good idea to search databases directly to get more relevant results.
Gumberg offers over 350 databases, and it can be difficult to know which ones to use.
For general searches, we recommend ProQuest Central and Academic Search Elite. You can also use Google Scholar as a general-purpose database.
If you have a specific topic or subject in mind, you can search subject-specific databases. Simply follow this link and filter by subject. You can also check out our Journal Databases: Which One to Use? guide to find databases.
You can also always ask your professors to recommend good databases, ask at the front desk, or check out our Ask Gumberg options for further assistance.
