Search Tips
You can search for articles several ways using the library website:
- For beginning stages of research OR if you already know the title of what you want to read: use the EasySearch box on the Library home page. Type your search or copy/paste your title into the box (click the gray journal tab first if you are looking for a journal).
- For subject-specific research: use the department libraries' webpages or the A-Z Database list to find databases for your discipline.
- For tracking down an article/journal you have a full or partial citation for: use the Journal and Article Locator.
Several useful databases have also been linked elsewhere on this guide.

Dissertations
Dissertations are excellent sources for your own bibliography, as doctoral candidates need to summarize the scholarly literature in their field. Browse these resources to find relevant dissertations.

- ProQuest Dissertations and Theses This link opens in a new windowPQDT is a collection of citations to dissertations and theses worldwide from 1861 to the present day. Full-text is available for most of the dissertations added since 1997 and some of the older graduate works. PQDT is also the official digital dissertations archive for the Library of Congress. Also included are the citations to British and Irish dissertations and theses (PQDT: UK & Ireland) since 1761 and abstracts for content since 1986.
Note: UIUC masters theses are not in PQDT. They are only found in IDEALS or in the library catalog. - Illinois Digital Environment for Access to Learning and Scholarship (IDEALS) This link opens in a new windowIDEALS collects, disseminates, and provides persistent and reliable access to the research and scholarship of faculty, staff, and students at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
