The University of Virginia databases offers options for getting full-text articles when doing research for your papers. One of the best databases for all subjects is called InfoTrac Onefile. It offers a wide variety of articles from both scholastic and popular journals and newspapers.
From the library page (http://library.semesteratsea.net) click on Semester at Sea and choose UVa Library Databases. Click on InfoTrac Onefile at the top of the page. When the proxy server box appears, type in your user name and password – NOT your 24 online password! If you do not have this information, please stop in at the Information Spa and get one.
Once you are in InfoTrac Onefile, scroll down the page until you see the Basic Search box and type in the terms that you need (very similar to doing a Google search). Scroll down a little bit more and you’ll see three boxes where you can limit your search to Documents with Full Text and then click on the Search button next to the search box.
