In order to find articles:

1. Go to the LWLC homepage and select "Databases by Subject" in the blue box on the lower left hand portion of the page.

2. Select the subject you're wanting to research such as "Government/History/Political Science" (History).

3. A new page will open with a list of databases relevant to that topic.
