- One of the primary databases for physical therapists is Medline. Simmons offers Medline Comprehensive with some full text. This database is the same as PubMed. Medline through Simmons has the added advantage of including the ArticleNow links to full text in other resources.

- Using First Search World Cat can be a useful strategy. This is a database of all published works worldwide and will provide you with information on what is available on your topic as well as listing the libraries that own the item.
