A library database is a collection of items, presented in the form of individual posts or records, which you can search and browse using a computer or device. Databases are highly organized and allow users to search for information on a topic by keyword, subject, author, title, and phrase. Databases can include different types of material - articles, documents, images and video. Articles in scholarly journals are particularly important in academic research.
