Guidelines on how to distinguish scholarly from popular articles
To find articles:
- "U.S. and Canadian history, prehistory to present".
No full text is provided, but article summaries are .
- Full text of the New York Times from its
inception in 1851 through 1999.
- Provides references to articles in popular American
magazines, 1890-1982. No full text, but we have many of the magazines
downstairs.
For other ideas, see the fullList of Indexes and Databases, with nearly 200
database options.
To locate journals:
At Wittenberg: Search Journals the Library Has, for a list of
magazines and journals that Wittenberg owns, both online and in hard copy.
At other academic libraries: Use Interlibrary Loan.
Locating journals can be tricky, difficult, and generally exasperating.
If you run into trouble, a reference librarian will be glad to assist you.
