OneSearch is a tool that allows you to search across many of the SDSU Library databases and website in one place. It can be a good tool to start your research or for interdisciplinary research.
Because it searches many databases across a variety of disciples and does not search all of the databases in the library, you may want to use the more specialized individual databases for more in-depth research and to access information in databases not covered by OneSearch.
Access OneSearch on the library homepage, or use the box below to search OneSearch.
OneSearch is just one tool to help you locate library resources. OneSearch does not search all of the vast amounts of information available through the SDSU Library . For much of your research, you will want to use an individual database that has more specialized information. The library subscribes to many databases that offer a variety of specialized information that you may ot find anywhere else.
