A database is a collection of information organized for easy retrieval, with the information usually behind a paywall. The Library provides NMH students and staff access to over 80 databases.
Library Databases might organize:
The information in the databases might be available in multiple ones, but sometimes databases have original content or are only provided for resources. Think of it as Netflix, Hulu, Max, etc. Each works very similarly and has some of the same content, but then there are shows/movies/documentaries only available on one platform.
The mission of Art Journal, founded in 1941, is to provide a forum for scholarship and visual exploration in the visual arts; to be a unique voice in the field as a peer-reviewed, professionally mediated forum for the arts. The journal, which welcomes submissions from authors and artists worldwide and at every career stage, is published four times a year in spring, summer, autumn, and winter by the College Art Association.
Image database including architecture, painting, sculpture, photography, decorative arts, and design as well as many other forms of visual culture. More than 2 million images from top museums, archives, scholars, and artists — all rights-cleared for education and research.
JSTOR provides access to the highest-quality academic scholarly journals, books, images, and primary sources in the humanities, social sciences, and sciences.

Students and staff do NOT need to pay for resources for your classes. If you have found an article or report you would like for your research project but you cannot access due to a paywall, please submit the Interlibrary Loan Request--Article form below. We will email you once the article or report is available. Please allow up to one week for inquiries.
