ZSR Homepage Search
A good place to start for many topics.
MLA International Bibliography
Comprehensive coverage of journal articles in the field of literature. Also includes references to individual book chapters, which is an important way of publishing in this field. You might want to limit your search to English.
Film and Television Literature Index
If your topic is films or film adaptations.
PsycINFO
The main database for psychology.
Watch out for variant spellings of names of works, characters, etc.
In MLA and other databases, frequently English-language articles use the original language name for a work. Example: Das Parfum instead of Perfume.
Use a * to cut off a word at its stem, e.g. psychopath* will retrieve psychopath, psychopaths, psychopathy
If you can't use a star to search for spelling variants, use OR
parfum or perfume
