Need help finding an article?
Do you know your subject? If so then choose either of the choices below;
Databases by Subject will allow you to view a subject heading list. Upon selecting a subject, a list of databases will be displayed for that particular subject.
Under Databases by Subject, don't forget to try the General subject heading as well. Under the General subject heading are databases that are not limited to a specific subject. These databases contain information spanning many disciplines.
Do you know the title of the journal you want? If so then use:
Find Online Full-text Journals and Magazines - The search screen automatically defaults to the Titles tab allowing you to search for a specific journal title. You are then provided with a list of database links from which that journal title may be accessed.
Library Catalog - Use the Library Catalog to locate journal titles that are available in paper or digital format in the Library. Go to Basic Search. Enter the journal title in the Search text box and select Journal Title in the within drop down box.
You may also browse a list of print periodicals at Find a Print Magazine or Journal. For further references, the link is located under the Find Articles tab in the above menu. This page lists all magazines and journals the Library holds in print form. Once you locate a journal title, one click will lead you to more information such as location in the Library, year, issue, volume, and call number.
How do you locate the entire article, either online or in print, if you only have a citation?
Online: Search other Databases.
Go to Find Online Full-text Journals and Magazines and do a search for the journal title. If the title is available, a list of databases will appear. Each database link will take you directly to the journal in that particular database. Each database will then prompt you to choose which year, issue, volume, etc., of the journal title you wish to search. If you are unable to locate an article online, find it in print (see below).
In Print: : Search the Library Catalog.
Go to the Library Catalog. Enter the journal title in the Search text box and select Journal Title in the within drop down box. If the title comes up in the search results list, then the Libray owns it. If your search comes up with the message, Your search resulted in no hits, then you need to request your article through Interlibrary Loan.
