YouTube is a great resource to find short database tutorials. Many database vendors and academic libraries make videos for these products. Many of you have probably used the databases provided by EBSCOhost in other classes, like ENGL 01A, already. Even though there may be different brands of databases, it's all the same concept--using filters to narrow to content type and date, using keywords and operators, downloading articles, etc. It's just that the buttons where you click are in different spots.
