Where can I find information about a specific country?
For current and reliable information on countries around the world, try using the following databases:
- Newswires (EBSCO) – Offers up-to-date news coverage from global sources.
- Opposing Viewpoints in Context – Provides background information, statistics, and perspectives on international issues.
To access these databases:
- Visit the Fr. Leonard Alvey Library webpage.
- Click on Databases.
- Use the A to Z Databases List to find and select either Newswires (EBSCO) or Opposing Viewpoints in Context.
Another trusted source for this would be the CIA World Factbook.
- CIA World Factbook – A trusted source for detailed country profiles, including data on geography, government, economy, demographics, and more.
