How do I find articles?
The Library has a large collection of journal-article databases that allow you to locate articles by subject, author, title and more. Not sure which database to search?
Take a look at our "How to Find Articles" online guide (library.ucsc.edu/ref/howto/find_articles.html) where you will find links to databases in subject areas related to your research interests. |
|
Where are the magazines and journals?
If you already have a citation for an article (i.e. journal name,
date, page number, etc.) then just look for the name of your
journal in CRUZCAT, the UCSC Library Catalog. If we have
it, CRUZCAT will let you know if your journal is available online
or give you a call number to the print version on our library shelves. Journals are shelved with the books throughout the
library. Check the CruzCat Catalog for more information. |
