How to Locate an Assigned Article

This section describes how to find an article when you have an assignment or reference with the article's title, author, journal, date, page, etc. 

  • Search your library's catalog by journal title. If your library owns the journal, check the location and format of the particular volume/issue or date you need. The journal may be in print, on microform, or electronic.

Check with the reference librarians at your library. They have information about the services of your own library and further recommendations on appropriate sources (electronic or print) to meet your information needs.
