WHAT IS A DATABASE?
These are paid subscriptions that provide access to a collection of sources not found through a free web search engine like Google. Ex. scholarly and peer-reviewed articles, journals, magazines, newspapers and more. These sources have been edited and reviewed.
RESEARCH DATABASES VS GOOGLE
Google includes a wider range of information, including personal blogs and websites with varying levels of reliability. Not necessarily fact-checked or researched information.
