If you have the name of a journal/magazine and need to see if the library has access to the journal/magazine in a library database:

  1. Go to the Library home page page (link below)
  2. Click the Journals A-Z link
  3. Type the name of the journal or magazine you need
  4. Look at the results to find which databases contain the full articles from a specific magazine/journal - look at the coverage dates too
    • if there is nothing that matches the journal/magazine and the date you need, then the article is not available in the library's databases
  5. Pick a database which meets your needs
  6. Browse by date or search within the journal/magazine - this may vary depending on the database you select

  4. Look at the results to find which databases contains the full article
    • if there is nothing that matches your search, then the article is not available in the library's databases
