Indexes provide citations to articles.
Be sure that the index in which you are searching covers the type of materials for which you are looking. Be sure to consider the time period of the publications within the database. If the database is only updated twice per year, you won't be able to find the citation of an article published last month. The results list shows the database that indexes the journal, and whether the journal is available in that database in full-text format. This source indexes and abstracts more than 2100 social science and humanities journals in the field of United States and Canadian history, and also includes books and dissertations.
