How can I search for journal articles?

If you know the journal title: first try a "journal title" search in the Library catalogue. You may get more than one result, depending on whether we have the print version, the online version, or both. Check what years/volumes we have:

  • Print: see the details in red under "Library holds".
  • Electronic: see the dates in the links under "Web access".

If you want to find articles on a specific topic, or by a specific author: you can search in one or more of the specialist databases we subscribe to.
