Finding Journal Articles
Journal articles on undergraduate reading lists are usually found
in e-Reserve. Search using words in the article
title or author's name. The procedure is exactly the same as finding
book chapters. However, if your lecturer has not placed materials
in e-Reserve you may also need to search Journal Finder which lists
the names of all print and electronic journals available through
the library homepage.
