CMMC has full text access to over 200 titles, including the full archive of some titles, and contains citations and abstracts for over 500 other sources. While the number of articles available is nice to know, the importance of this database is reflected in what it offers the students and faculty in the areas of Communication Studies and Journalism.

needs of departments on campus.
