MEL (Michigan Electronic Library) is an excellent research source. It has a variety of databases, which are collections of articles from journals, magazines, newspapers, books, and transcripts from all over the world! Some of the databases focus on a specific subject, like law or medicine, but most cover millions of topics. I recommend these:
Academic One File
Expanded Academic ASAP
General Reference Center Gold
Infotrac Custom Newspapers
You can log on to mel.org, click on "see databases from library" (in middle), and then choose from the many databases in the list.
You can use MEL from home, but have to enter a Michigan driver's license number or state identification number because Michigan tax dollars provide access to these resources. Your information will be encoded and not used in any way, so it's very safe.
Log on to MEL sometime and just look around; you'll be amazed at what you'll find!
