This page describes how to locate electronic or print journals by title or subject. If you are interested in finding articles using keywords you are on the wrong page and can find information on the Database, Journal, and Article Searching guide. To get started you can skip this tutorial and go directly to the Journal Finder. An alternative option for browsing journals by category or subject is to use Browzine.
From the library's homepage, select the Journal Finder button. This brings you to the main interface for finding journals. You can search for a journal by title or ISSN and browse by subject area.
As you begin to type words in, the Journal Frinder will begin suggesting titles.
As an example, if you were looking for "The Atlantic Monthly", as you begin typing you would begin to see a list of suggestions.
TIP: If you know the precise name or ISSN, type that instead of relying on the auto-populated suggestion.
The results appear in alphabetical order - to see more information click on the Title or Availability Link
Note: If you are off campus, after selecting a database you will be prompted to enter your network or Canvas username and password. If you require additional assistance with this, please see Accessing Off Campus Resources.
Below is an image of the database options as well as date coverage for each database. There may be some overlap between databases.
If accessing a journal electronically, once you click on the database of choice you can begin searching for articles. Get help on searching for articles. Also note, that if the library has the journal in print it will tell you that also.
You may also browse by subject to isolate journals within a specific category or even a specific medical category:
Using Art, Architecture & Applied Arts as an example, clicking the chevron (arrow) will expand the list of subcategories
Clicking on the title, will open the journals in the category or subcategory
Click on the title or availability link for a journal, then you can select a database or use the Search Inside feature to search within that journal.
