Multidisciplinary database ideal for undergraduate students. Searches exact phrases. Will output references in MLA format. Try these:

Google Scholar (Rutgers restricted version)
Indexes many items not commonly found in one place elsewhere. Lists PDF or indicates Full Text@Rutgers if readily available. Does not prepare bibliographic output; you must use a citation manager (RefWorks, EndNote, Zotero, or the like) or other method to capture bibliographic information.
JSTOR
Full-text backfiles of important academic journals in many fields. WARNING: Most materials in this database are more than five years old.
Project Muse
Recent full-text articles, primarily in the humanities and social sciences.
