Use databases to find journals, preprint articles, published articles, conference proceedings, patents, technical reports and other e-publications.

If you are unsure of where to start, contact your librarian (Amanda McCormick) or visit this tutorial created by UB Libraries. 

The most frequently used physics databases are listed below. 

Google Scholar 

• Set up a profile! In your account options, select "library links" to double-check that you are connected to UB (choose: University at Buffalo Libraries - View it @ UB) You may also create an alert in Scholar.  Click the envelope icon near "create alert." 
• If you run across a journal title that isn't familiar...make sure to check the title to confirm that it is a trusted peer-reviewed journal (and not a predatory journal).  Use Ulrichsweb: Global Serials Directory

UB on INSPIRE 

• View articles, theses, conference papers, etc. indexed to UB authors
