USING eJOURNALS


  •       There are different ways to search for journals on the catalogue, one of which is explained in the post ‘Using Journals’.
    ·         Remember to look out for the internet resource symbol, this will bring you to the eJournals or online journals (see image above). Not all journals are online.

  •        After you have clicked on the title you are looking for, you will see a link under ‘Connect to’ (see image above). Click on the link and you will be brought to the online journal.
  •     By accessing the journal through the library catalogue you will automatically be signed in, which will allow you to read the articles.


  •        The online journal will have different layouts to their home pages but look out for the word ‘Browse’ or ‘All issues’, or look out for the search box (see red arrows on image above).
    ·         With the search box you can search by subject (keyword), author, or title of article and you will be brought to a list of articles that should be relevant to your research needs.
    ·         If you know the year and issue of the article, use the search ‘All issues’ link. This will bring you to a list of articles published in this issue, scroll through the titles to find what you are looking for. 

  •          Remember, some publications put a one-year embargo on journals. This means you will not be able to access a journal from the last year. If you have, any queries email cbs.library@dit.ie or ask at the desk.
