Is there a way to search all of the Library's databases at once?
Answer
Unfortunately, there is no way to search across every single of our databases using one single search engine. The Search the Library box on the U of A Library homepage searches for print and ebook holdings in the UALibrary catalogue AND roughly 300 databases AND the Education and Research Archive (ERA), all in one search.
The U of A Library subscribes to around 1500 databases, so this searches only a small amount of them.
The Library recommends looking at Subject Guides to help identify which databases focus on your subject area, and then search directly in those databases.
