Find Your Journals & 'Find More Like It'

Fnd out if a journal you saw or heard about is licensed for you & use the E-Journals List to find it! Whether the journal is a separate subscription or included in a database, the EJournals portal finds it!

Start at the Case Catalog | Select EJournals from the thin gray menu bar near the top of the screen | Type in the journal title

Follow the best link for the date of your citation, e.g.:

The link you choose from the results of a journal title search on EJournals may depend on whether a) you want to read only that article (in a subscription link) or b) read it and continue researching the subject or author in the database link.

• Find More Like It...

Choose a link for a database like Business Source Complete or Accounting & Tax for your journal article & the article will have standardized tags & subject terms assigned to it that describe the article. Use those tags/terms to begin a new search for 'more like it,' expanding on the original article that you liked.

EJournals list helps to identify a good database to do further searching–if a good journal is included in the database, others like it are in there & it's a good place to start a new search so you can stay in one good source and build upon the good article you found there.
