The Library of Congress also has what may be the world's largest
collection of electronic databases freely available to readers in its
Capitol Hill location.
Listing of full-text electronic journals:

General information gateway on tools and services for researchers:

Unfortunately, as Sandy Treadway indicated, the licensing agreements
that make these invaluable databases available to research libraries
also generally make offsite access prohibitively expensive or forbid
it altogether--but researchers should not hesitate to come to the
Library of Congress or their local college or university library. In
today's never-ending budget competitions, after all, libraries are
seldom sorry to see patrons show up.
