| Library Catalogue | Searches all academic journal databases that SMU provides. |
| HeinOnline | Has five major library collections: the Law Journal Library, the Federal Register Library, the Treaties and Agreements Library, the Philip C. Jessup Library, and the U.S. Supreme Court Library. You can also search its content using the library catalogue. |
