Periodicals consist of magazines, academic journals and newspapers. They are a great resource when you are trying to find very specific information about a topic or very current information about a topic.
While the library does have some periodicals in print, you will probably use a periodical database to find articles. The databases will give you access to thousands of different publications, most of which provide full text articles. The Discovery Service search listed below allows you to search the majority of our holdings all at once. The trick is to do a simple search, then filter your results.
