On August 1, 2024, ARTStor's content, key resources and functionality will be moving to JSTOR. Searching between art works and art criticism will be seamless!
You will notice that the ARTstor database link has already been removed from research guides, so some of you may have already worked with the new system!
For more details, check out ARTstor's user guide to the site migration, which includes checklists, videos and other training materials.
Use research databases to search for articles. Most databases allow you to limit to scholarly or peer reviewed articles. Some databases will return full text articles, and abstracts or summaries of articles.
Use the GET ARTICLE or LINK TO FULL TEXT link to see if an article is available in another database. If an article is unavailable through Monmouth University Library it may be requested through Interlibrary Loan.
Subscription databases are available to Monmouth University students, faculty and staff. For remote log in, use your university username and password.
You can view the entire list of MU databases by subject or A to Z.
Search Google Scholar for scholarly full-text materials available in addition to those you locate in HawkFind. If there is a link to the right of any of your search results, follow the link to view the full article (you may not have access to all the articles in your search results). Check out the Google Search tips video (created by Concordia University) for additional help, and be sure to access Google Scholar from the Monmouth University website in order to view accessible articles.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a fact of life and has been for quite some time. It's only recently that we have seen it incorporated into apps for a mainstream audience. If you've ever used Siri or Alexa or if you've used a chatbot, you've used AI! Below are some FAQs that will help you get a better understanding of how you might use it.
Always ask your instructor about their policy on using AI for class assignments.
Q:What is AI?
A: AI is the use of computers to imitate the behavioral aspects of human reasoning and learning.
Q:What is ChatGPT?
A: ChatGPT is a chatbot and virtual assistant that uses a Large Language Model to sort and organize data and language into a desired length, format, style, level of detail, and language. It relies on input (prompts) from users and training on data and language to mimic human language patterns and generate responses.
Q: What is a Large Language Model?
A: A Large Language Model is a computation structure that is capable of generating language or other natural (everyday) language processing tasks. It is "trained" on massive amounts of data that it can use to predict language patterns in speech and text.
Q: Can I use ChatGPT as a search tool?
A: ChatGPT can generate responses to prompts, but it cannot search the web by itself. It is trained on a specific set of resources within a specific time frame and cannot "find" new resources that it doesn't "know" about. Its purpose is to put words/concepts/data together in specific ways based upon the likelihood that one word will follow another. It's like an autocorrect feature that can sort and organize complete sentences instead of letters! It cannot sort fact from fiction or find a reliable source, and so its responses to prompts may not be accurate.
Note: ChatGPT is now testing SearchGPT, which has web search capability - but it is only in prototype as of July 2024.
