From our post about a lack of access to academia in anthropology. If you’re a student at a university, you should have access to hundreds of databases through your library account, but for those of you no longer in school, or just interested in research, here is a list of databases where you can find anthropological works. A few may have an article limit or require you to create an account to access more than the abstract, add your favorite resources or databases !
