The best place to start looking for a particular journal title is the Library Catalog, by doing a "Journal Title" search. If we own the journal in print, electronically, or both, the Catalog will tell you.

  • Our Electronic Journals list is linked off of the library homepage (under Resources), but searching the Library Catalog for a title will give you the electronic link anyway, if it exists.

Hint: If we have the journal title you're looking for, be sure to check that we have the specific year that you need. Sometimes we will have some years in print, and then other years electronically.


If we do not own the journal you are looking for, you can use the Citation Linker to find a particular article that might be in one of our databases.

Interlibrarian Loan - ILLiad requests will give you specific articles that we don't have access to here at PSU, but you need the full article citation.   

You can also search the WorldCat catalog to see if another library in your geographic area owns the journal you are looking for.
