• Go to the library’s homepage.
• Click the Library Catalog link.
• If you are trying to find a specific article and you know the title of the journal or source from which it comes, click the tab for a Journal Title search.
• Enter the full title of the Journal (if you have only an abbreviation for the journal title, use the National Library of Medicine's Journals Database to find the full title of the journal).
• Click on the journal's title to see all of the volumes of the journal the library has.
• Check the journal holdings information to make sure that the library has online or in print the year, volume, and issue of the journal you need.

Find online journals

• If you only want to find the library's online journals, look in the E-journal List. I recommend you use this only to scan through new research, much as you would flip through a new print magazine you receive.

Find articles on a specific topic

• Use these Find Research Articles steps. If you are in a big hurry, you can limit your search to Full Text only, but realize the library has access to many more full text articles than those shown when you limit your search in this way.

Get articles the library does not have

• If the library does not have a material online or in print (if you take classes in Cullowhee), put in an Interlibrary Loan request.
• Not in Cullowhee?
