We would recommend either searching through Summon or EBSCO Quick Search.

Search for Articles through Summon:

  1. Navigate to the main library website at http://www.liberty.edu/library/.
  2. Once the above link is selected, click the word Articles above the search bar.
  3. Type successful online learners into the search bar.
  4. Select Search to view your results.

EBSCO QuickSearch:

  1. Navigate to the main library website at http://www.liberty.edu/library/.
  2. To the right, under Databases by Subject select Browse All Databases.
  3. On the A-Z Databases page, select the letter E.
  4. In the list that comes up select the link to EBSCO QuickSearch.
  5. Before you type your search terms, scroll down to the Limit your Results section. Click Scholarly (Peer Reviewed) Journals. If you have a publication date range requirement, you can enter it in the Published Date field.
  6. Type successful online learners into the top of the three search bars.
  7. Select Search to view your results.
  8. When the results come up, you may either modify your search by adding words on the second line, such as traits or characteristics.
  9. If you find a result that says PDF Full Text or HTML Full Text, click that link to view the article. If you find a result that says Get it at Liberty, the article is not available in full text in EBSCO. Click “Get it at Liberty” to check to see if we have the article in other databases. If we do, the library system will list the databases; you can choose which one you would like to view the article.

If you have any additional questions, feel free to reach out to us at (434) 582-2220 or at research@liberty.edu.
