Want to find out if you can get electronic access to a journal article through the library? Check the E-Journal Finder. From the research page, it's listed under Frequently Used Databases on the right hand side of the page. The E-Journal Finder even tells you if a journal is available on Lexis and Westlaw. To use the E-Journal Finder, type in the name of the journal, and see what sources will give you full-text electronic access. If we don't have the journal electronically, check the library catalogfor a print version or request the article through interlibrary loan.
Periodical literature is a good way to obtain background information, locate the text of a law, a citation, or locate information about a subject. To obtain the best results, use periodical indexes to locate relevant citations.
Below are listed a few of the most commonly used journal indexes. See our journal indexes pagefor a complete list. If you are new to using indexes to find articles, have a look at these two guides:Locating Journal Articles: Foreign & International and Using Articles for Legal and Non-Legal Research.
