A word about our Federated A - Z List of Databases: Once in the A - Z list of all our databases you can search databases individually by clicking on their "blue highlighted" name, or together in a "Federated Search" by clicking the box next to each database description and entering your search in the find box on top.  Once your results appear, look for the full text filter on the upper right hand corner and click the box to ensure that the articles you retrieve are full text.

Results may vary when searching databases together.  Searching a database individually, or with other databases of the same company will often produce the most comprehensive search.  A note for BCC students, faculty and staff - If you can not find a full text for an article you request an InterLibrary Loan. Our InterLibrary Load service (ILL) is not available currently for community borrowers.
