Databases allow you to search large collections of journals or other materials at once. They are most effectively searched using a combination of keywords and Boolean operators. Librarians can assist with searches if you are not finding what you need.
The Library Databases box links to databases accessed through the library homepage or through myMCCKC. You will be prompted to enter your employee ID and password to access them.
The Open Access Databases box links to databases, directories, and aggregators accessible by anyone.
If you have found a citation or an abstract for an article but cannot find the full text, consult the Requesting Articles box.
Looking for a specific article? Use the Article Finder tool.
Provides indexing, abstracts, and some full text for peer-reviewed journals to assist professional educators in assessment, curriculum development, literacy standards, pedagogical research, instructional media, school administration, and more.
If you need an article the library does not have access to, use the ArticleReach tool to request it.
When requesting an article, you will be required to identify which institution you are affiliated with. Select MOBIUS-KC-Towers.
When entering your campus ID, use your employee number, omitting the E, followed by MCC as the campus code.
If you have trouble using ArticleReach, contact the library and librarians can request the article for you.
