JSTOR provides many full-text scholarly articles in different fields but does not provide access to the most current years; instead, coverage usually ends about 3-5 years ago, depending on the journal.

The screenshot examples below show a search for only articles about the War of 1812 and naval warfare.

• I used quotes to search for words together as a phrase (i.e. "War of 1812" and "naval warfare").
• I put my keywords into different search boxes to make the search simpler.
• I checked the box next to Articles under Item Type to show just articles in my search results.
• Click the Submit Advanced Search button to start searching for articles.

This search found 167 articles related to my keywords.

• Results are automatically sorted by relevance, so the most relevant articles are displayed first in the list of results.
