Almost every academic discipline has its own database compiled by experts in the field. These databases are gold mines of information. For example, PubMed is one of the most significant research databases biomedical literature, while ERIC is one of the most important in the field of education.

Research portals such as CompletePlanet can give you an overview of interesting information sources.

Hint: Your library's website generally contains a section that tells you which research databases the library subscribes to. Often these databases will be grouped by academic discipline. Ask your library's subject specialists for information regarding the best databases for your topic.
