Finding journal articles
Journal articles can be a great help and may be required as you try to do research and
write papers on a specific topic. To find articles on your topic, you need to use one of
several reference databases or print indexes. For more information
on finding articles please visit the user guide called How to Find
Periodical Articles
A complete list of electronic
databases and print
indexes is available on the URI Libraries Web site
Once you have located a citation (author, article title, journal name, volume, number
and pagination) to an article, you can use HELIN to see if URI or any of the other HELIN
libraries subscribes to that journal. Please note that HELIN will only list who owns a
title and where it is kept.
You can not use HELIN to find article citations.
We’ll first take a look at using HELIN to find journals and then we’ll
briefly look at using reference databases to find the information you need.

Many journals provide
online access to the full text of their articles. The HELIN catalog will provide links to
the journals that are available electronically and many electronic databases will link
directly to the articles.
