SearchCat is the library's new discovery tool for locating books (both at Frostburg and in other libraries), articles, and other online resources. Off-campus students, faculty, and staff may now log in to SearchCat using the same login used for Frostburg email and other accounts.  Please contact us if you have any questions about the new system!

Recommended Databases

Google Scholar

In addition to the library's databases, you can also search for scholarly articles with GoogleScholar. 

If you have a Gmail/Google account, you can even customize your search results. After doing this, if any of the articles found through GoogleScholar is available from the Frostburg Library, it will help you find the full text! To customize your account, please follow the directions on the "Make Google Scholar Work For You" handout below.
