Find Journals by Title

  • Step 1. Go to QuickSearch
  • Step 2. Click on the "Search by name of journal" link in the "What is QuickSearch?" box, or click on the "Find Journal by Title" link at the top of the page.
  • Step 3: Enter the name of the journal you're looking for. Click on the magnifying glass icon or hit enter. (Note that this search does not search at the article level.) Alternatively, you can browse alphabetically for the title of the journal.
  • Step 4. Click the title of the journal to see which database contains full text articles and the issue dates that are accessible.
  • Step 5. Click on the database name to be taken to all the available issues of the journal. Typically you are then able to search within the journal to narrow your search results.

Note: If the journal or article you're looking for is not available, please request an interlibrary loan.
