Articles (Current)
 |
Articles usually provide the
most current and detailed information on your topic. Articles appear in
periodicals, magazines, journals, and newspapers. Magazine articles are
useful for brief, general, introductory information. Journal articles from
scholarly or professional journals provide more scholarly or technical
information. These articles are usually written by scholars in a
particular field. Newspaper articles are good sources for current, general
information. |
| To find references to current
periodical articles, first consult one or more of the electronic
periodical indexes listed below. The index(es) will provide citations on
your topic, listing the following: author of article, title, journal in
which the article appeared, volume and/or number, date, page numbers, and
often an abstract (summary) of the article.
Write down, print out, or download the
citation(s). Check the Pollak
Library Catalog to determine if we have the journal. Check the dates we own, and write
down the call number (where the periodical is located on the second
floor). Some full-text journals may be available electronically. |
