Answer

On the library homepage, click on Find Articles. On the Find Articles & More page, choose the database SIRS Issues Researcher

In SIRS, go to the Pro vs. Con section and choose "Online Social Networks." You may want also look at "Technology & Privacy" and "Web 2.0." You will be able to find articles on the leading issues for your topic, as well as articles from numerous sources, topic overviews, statistics, and timelines. 

Another database to use on the Find Articles & More page is eLibrary Academic. Try searches for "social media" or "online social networks."
