CQ Researcher contains comprehensive 12,000-word reports, written by journalists, analyzing issues in the news. Reports include background information and an assessment of the current situation, and are available in full-text.

This is a little quick search tool. Keep in mind these results will look a bit different, but it's the same content. 

Here is a quick video explaining the key features of CQ Researcher.

Searching & Browsing

To find reports, you can either search or browse. 

TIP: Think broadly about your topic and use a 'big picture' approach in order to find background information in CQ Researcher. For example, if you are writing a paper about how social networking affects relationships, do a quick search for social networking or social media. 

Full-Text

The full-text of CQ Researcher reports are found in the CQ Researcher database automatically. 

Printing, Emailing & Citing

CQ Researcher lets you e-mail, print or save the reports. 

Gale's Virtual Reference Library is another great resource. It includes information from a variety of reference books, on topics ranging from the arts, to education, to law, and more.
