Databases are a great place to start your research. They provide a more narrow scope than searching through all of KSL's offerings which makes it easier to apply filters, skim results, and find relevant sources.
One of the best tools you have for finding articles from scholarly journals, magazines, and newspapers- for AIQS or nearly any other class you take at CWRU- is the multi-disciplinary database Academic Search Complete (ASC). ASC is a fairly easy-to-use platform that serves as a great introduction to the world of databases!
ASC is a great place to start when you're looking for articles on a topic, rather than full-length books. A majority of the articles are directly available in full text/

Another database that can be widely useful is JSTOR. JSTOR also covers a wide range of disciplines, although it tends to highlight sources from the humanities, arts and sciences, social sciences, and business.
