Start Your Research
Start Your Research searches most, but not all, of our databases, plus the catalog. For multi-disciplinary research, Start Your Research is a very good option.
Databases by Type
In addiiton to our Geography subject databases, I highly recommend trying our databases organized by type. Some of our types include Census & Demographics, Dissertations & Theses, and Newspapers. There are historical newspaper databases for cities such as Austin, San Antonio, Dallas, Chicago, etc.
Some example databases that would be useful:
- Digital Collections @ Texas StateDissertations & theses from Texas State University.
- Dissertations & Theses GlobalFind dissertations & theses from other universities
- SimplyAnalyticsFind current demographic data. Create maps.
- NewsbankGreat for local Texas newspapers, though also check out some in the newspaper database list.
- Portal to Texas HistoryDigital collections from Texas.
