General databases that contain articles from many disciplines can be found in "General Resources" section. If you're new to research it's often useful to start here. This is also a good place to search if you're looking for interdisciplinary research, or your topic involves two or more subjects, like data science and chemistry.

Resources that are specific to each discipline can be accessed on the tabs on the left side.

The Citation Styles tab will bring you to the guides for citation styles. The Writing in the Sciences tab will bring you to resources about writing.
