"Search for Articles" searches most GCC databases all at once. The number of search results might be a bit overwhelming, but those results can be further sorted by type. Use the "Search for Articles" box below to:

• Get a birds-eye view on the variety of results for a topic
• Find articles in databases beyond the subject-specific databases
• Discover how your topic relates to other fields of study
• Limit search results to scholarly, reference or magazine

Type directly in the box below by combinations of keywords to find more articles on short stories and their elements. To search for full phrases instead of individual keywords, use parentheses around phrases:

                   Example:  (The Garden of Forking Paths) AND (Jorge Luis Borges)

One Search produces a large number of results. You can limit your initial results by clicking limiters on the left side of the page once you hit enter.
