Accessing Databases
The library provides access to numerous databases, and you can use any of them. As a rule, the library's databases tend to focus less on books and more heavily on articles from magazines, journals, and newspapers, many of which will be completely full text in a readable/printable format. Searching within a specific database can be more helpful than searching our catalog because you can more easily narrow your search and save important articles.
You must access the databases through the FHU library website for the databases to recognize you as a Freed-Hardeman student.
Off-Campus Use of Databases
Off-Campus Use of Databases
When off-campus, make sure that you access our databases through the FHU library's page. You will get a gray pop-up window asking for your credentials; it will be your FHU user name and password, which is the same as what you use to check your university email.
To get to the Journals & Databases page from the library Home page, click on the gray Journals and Databases tab.
From the Journals and Databases page, you can search for a specific journal title, search databases by subject, or browse through our most frequently used databases.
If you have a particular database in mind, you can go straight to it from this page. Select All Databases and then scroll down until you find the database you need; they are listed in alphabetical order.
For this class, the Communication & Literature database list will provide the best resources for your research.
