FAQ
Finding the Journals
|
 | Search Find Journals by Title for the journal title. If we subscribe to the journal, in either paper or electronic format, you'll find a record there. The record may link you to the Pollak Library Catalog or to an electronic source. |
| Pollak Library Catalog links will include all paper copies and some electronic copies. Direct links to electronic sources will include any additional electronic coverage that we may have. |
| Be sure to check the dates of coverage and location for each journal needed. Coverage may vary. |
Where are paper copies located?
| The Pollak Library Catalog will identify the call number, location, and holdings for each title owned in paper format. Be sure to check this information before proceeding. The Library may not have every issue of the journal you need. |
| Most journals, those with the location "Periodicals", are located on the 2d floor of Pollak Library North (see map). |
| Those with different locations (e.g., Compact Stacks, Government Documents) can be found by checking the Location Symbol List. |
Are any journal articles available electronically?
| The Find Journals by Title list will identify journals in both electronic and paper format. Electronic coverage may be selective--the electronic source may not include every article published in that journal. |
| From the Pollak Library Journal Title List, "CSUF Library Catalog" links will include all paper copies and some electronic copies. Direct links to electronic sources will include any additional electronic coverage that we may have. |
| To access library subscription resources, including full-text journals, you need to be on campus OR to connect from off-campus through the proxy server. (HOW?) |
