Finding Journals at the Evans Library

Instead of searching for individual articles by topic or keyword, you may want to explore a Journal on your topic. Journals publish the individual articles that we find in article databases. One Journal issue contains multiple articles focused around one central subject, theme, or topic. The Evans Library subscribes to thousands of full-text Journals that you can access via the Evans Library website.

You can search for journals by title or browse for them by subject. Use the links below to help you find Journals.
