Newspapers  /Magazines /Databases

For students doing research assignments, magazines, newspapers, and journals are often the most important source of printed information because:
  1. They provide daily/recent coverage on a wide range of topics and developments.
  2. They contain the most current information available on many subjects.
  3. They are most often the first source of information on new subjects.
  4. The articles are generally short and focus on narrow subjects.
  5. Editorials and articles present objective and subjective points of view.
  6. They provide information about new ideas and concepts.


Most online publications contain archives, so that you can follow the development of particular topics through the years or obtain the most recent information on your subject.
