Wikipedia list article This article contains a representative list of notable databases and search engines useful in an academic setting for finding and accessing articles in academic journals, institutional repositories, archives, or other collections of scientific and other articles.

Databases and search engines differ substantially in terms of coverage and retrieval qualities.[1] Users need to account for qualities and limitations of databases and search engines, especially those searching systematically for records such as in systematic reviews or meta-analyses.[2] As the distinction between a database and a search engine is unclear for these complex document retrieval systems, see: the general list of search engines for all-purpose search engines that can be used for academic purposesthe article about bibliographic databases for information about databases giving bibliographic information about finding books and journal articles.

A Science Reader for COVID-19

While JSTOR Daily’s Teaching Pandemics Syllabus takes a more interdisciplinary approach to the current global outbreak, this collection of free-to-access readings from the JSTOR database is intended to give the reader scientific context around the COVID-19 pandemic. Some articles are directed to a general audience, while others have appeared in scientific journals, but all have been selected to illuminate how we have come to know what we do about viruses in general, coronaviruses in particular, the bats from which they sometimes “spill over,” and the warnings that went unheeded about the “next great pandemic.” (Hint: we’re already there.)
