Looking for Journal Articles Outside of the Databases
Finding sources from outside the databases
You may come across useful journal sources in ways other than searching databases. For example:
- Someone (possibly a professor) mentions an article in a lecture or conversation
- Sources from a bibliography or works cited of another source
- Found using a web search, but the article is behind a paywall
In this section, we will look at how you can track down these sources using the library website.
