HIST 1551: The History of U.S.-China Relations

Using Penn's Articles Plus database is a good place to start your search. You will likely yield many results from a search, so consider using the filters on the side to help you narrow your topic. Sometimes you will have direct access to that article (through Penn Libraries), but sometimes you need to request that article through Interlibrary Loan. 

• How do I submit an Interlibrary Loan request?
  • Use the Request an item form  to get started. DVD's, music CD's, microfilm and microfiche will need to be requested using the  'Book or other item' button under the What's the item you are requesting? heading.  
  • If you need an article or a book chapter, use the 'Article or chapter' button.
  • If you prefer to do your own searching for a book, start with either BorrowDirect or EZBorrow for faster service.
  • When submitting any Interlibrary Loan request form, please provide as much information about the item as you can. If you need to double-check citation information for a book, it's often helpful to check Amazon or WorldCat.
  • Once the request has been submitted, you will receive a Request Confirmation email.

The following list provides the top subject-specific research databases for locating political science and public policy journals and articles. At the bottom, there are also China-specific databases that might help with your research as well.
