InfoTrac OneFile, the broad general-purpose database that includes newspaper, magazine, and scholarly articles, is now called General OneFile. The InfoTrac name is now being used to describe the platform running the various Gale databases such as General OneFile, Academic OneFile, Computer Database, and Health Reference Center Academic.
VCU Libraries recommends using Academic OneFile, a subset of General OneFile, when you are unsure of which subject-specific database to use to look for articles from scholarly publications. Academic OneFile is an excellent sampler database containing references to more than 24 million items published in scholarly journals. It covers most academic disciplines, specializing in none.
