How do I access PsychINFO?
You can access it from the Databases A-Z on the Library homepage. Just search under 'P', and you will find it. Alternatively, you can follow the highlighted link here.
How does it relate to Library Search?
PsychINFO is unusual because Library Search does not integrate its content. This means that you will miss PsychINFO content if you rely on Library Search alone.
