Expanded Academic ASAP
What is it? Why use it?

WHAT IS IT?
Expanded Academic ASAP is an electronic PERIODICALS DATABASE which contains ARTICLES from many MAGAZINES and JOURNALS.  Montgomery College Libraries subscribe to a number of electronic periodical databases. However, Expanded Academic ASAP is especially useful because it covers so many different subject areas. You type in your topic, and it will provide a list of articles which fit your needs. Some of the articles you locate will be available FULL TEXT.

WHY USE IT?
Usually, you will use Expanded Academic ASAP when you are doing research for a paper. Before you start, you need to think about whether a periodical index is the best place to begin your research.
