Medieval History

You know it, you love it: the good ol' Coates catalog. Be sure to check the whole entry for additional searching help in the form of subject keywords, Google Books previews, tables of contents, etc.

JSTOR is an archive of peer-reviewed academic journals, and History is one of its biggest collections. Unless you're pressed for time, remember to uncheck "Include only content I can access" so you can send requests through interlibrary loan. Also, you can scroll down and limit your search by discipline, which is useful as JSTOR often returns a huge number of results.

Note: with only 75 history journals in total, Muse is not as comprehensive as other resources on this LibGuide, but like JSTOR the database provides full-text articles.

Indexes scholarly literature on the history of the world (excluding the United States and Canada) from 1450 to the present. Coverage is broad, so the database is also useful for topics in other disciplines (e.g. religion, anthropology, or political science).

One Search allows you to search across most of the library's resources (book, DVDs, CDs, articles, images, primary sources, etc.) from a single search box.

Use WorldCat to search for additional books and book chapters related to your topic. As you search, items from your results list that are available in our library will have "Trinity University Library" noted next to the title. You can request the books we don't have through interlibrary loan by clicking on the "Send Request to ILLiad" link in WorldCat.
