Databases for Language Research in Academic Journals & other sources

Primary Databases for Linguistic Studies Research 

If you are having trouble finding mention of your language, consider searching Libraries Search for all databases simultaneously. This will include print and ebooks, news, popular content, video, and other sources you may not find elsewhere. 

Other Library collections and subscription resources

Resources for research citations on the open web (cut and paste article titles into SUMMON, linked above, for library access). 

Websites for Language Research

In some cases, external resources or references listed in Ethnologue & Glottolog will only include citations, and will not have direct links to full text. In those cases, take the title of the article and search in SUMMON, the database of library subscribed databases, to see if we have access.
