The place to go to begin your library research is the Library Gateway. This site is fairly intuitive, but if you are having problems finding what you need, see if any of the following guides are of use to you:
Online Catalog or Help Finding books in our library
Journal and Article Locator or Finding specific articles
Online Journals and Databases or Finding a specific journal or database
Covers the history of the world (excluding the United States and Canada) from 1450 to the present, including world history, military history, women's history, history of education, and more. Provides indexing of more than 1,700 academic historical journals in over 40 languages back to 1955. Alternate version: Historical Abstracts with Full Text in the classic EBSCO user interface (best for exporting more than 50 results or combining saved searches).
