Accessing journals and journal articles

If you are on campus or connected via remote access clicking on an article link should take you to the full text.

If you are not on campus or using remote access please click on the link then look for an option to login via Shibboleth or via your institution.

More information on accessing our electronic journals is available here.

Searching for journal articles when you know the title...

When looking for the full-text of an article, you need to search for the journal title first - usually in italics - then the year, volume number, issue number and page numbers.  We subscribe to a large number of journal articles in print as well as eJournals.

TOP TIP: Some people search the eJournals A-Z list first but don't forget the print journals too!  The library catalogue will tell you in the print journal search what years and volume numbers we have for reference use only in the LRC.
