Scout is UA Libraries discovery search tool. It is a great place to begin your research as it will simultaneously search throughout much of the content that UA Libraries has access to. This includes print books, e-books, periodicals, databases, journals, primary sources, and streaming video. There are numerous filtering tools available within Scout to help you narrow down your results.
