Tip: you don't need to read the whole article. Scan the title and read the abstract. That will usually give you enough information to use in your paper.
If you find a good article with no PDF, ask your librarian to get it for you. Allow a few days for the article to arrive. The librarians will be requesting it from a service offered by the Boston Public Library.
A good place to start your research. Articles are 1-10 pages long and place your topic in context, explains history, and introduces you to important names, organizations and ideas.
