Library databases such as Academic Search Complete are designed to help you find information about a specific topic across multiple journals. But sometimes when researching you already know the name of the specific journal or magazine you would like to search, such as Mathematics Magazine, and what you need to do is find that information quickly within that source. Many of our popular and scholarly periodicals are available online. You can easily search within these publications.
SEARCHING WITHIN PERIODICALS
Use the Journal Finder search engine to see if Jenks Library has the periodical available online. From the online record for the journal, click on the online access option, and then look for the "search within this publication" link. Enter whatever keyword you would like on the second line of the search interface that appears. You can also browse by discipline using Journal Finder.
Watch this short video for how to get access to articles you find from a web search like Google Scholar. Remember, never pay for content, the library can help you find it!
