One of the state resources is PowerSearch, which enables one-stop searching of many Gale databases. It shows results from magazines, news sources, academic journals, and more.
While searching for slightly varied terms can yield wildly different results, it is nice to be able to start in one place. Don’t hesitate to tweak your search terms repeatedly.
One publication that is indexed is The Economist. While it’s certainly not a graphic-friendly browsing experience, it is one way to read articles, now that RB Digital is going away as a County resource. Currently, neither Flipster or OverDrive offer The Economist.
Articles from The Economist can also be found in Gale’s General OneFile and Infotrac Newsstand.
In any of these Gale databases, on the main screen, under the search box is a button for Publication Search. (Alternately, you can choose the Advanced Search icon, then choose the Publication Search tab). Within Publication Search, you can click the link to show a list of All publications in that database or just type your targeted name in the search box. With just a few more clicks, you will be at a list of issues, then a list of articles.
