About Journal Finder

What is Journal Finder?

Journal Finder is an integrated search interface that allows you to determine if the Library provides electronic access, to find out if the Library owns a print copy, to find out which other libraries may have print copies, and to order copies of articles that can be sent directly to you. Here's a brief demonstration.

Does Journal Finder just contain scholarly journals?

No. Despite its name, Journal Finder includes not just journals, but also newspapers, magazines, newsletters and other items that come out more than once per year.

Which periodical titles are in Journal Finder?

Journal Finder contains lists of all journals, newsletters, newspapers, and magazines that meet one of the following criteria:

1. the Library offers immediate online access to a significant amount of full text for that title
2. the Library owns some printed issues of that title

Is Journal Finder a good place to find articles on a particular topic?

No. Use the subject section of the Electronic Databases to find articles on a given topic. Once you find out which journals contain the articles you need, you can come back to Journal Finder to find the journals.
