How do I find articles?
Answer
If you know the name of the journal in which the article appears, you can search Acorn, Vanderbilt Library's catalog, for print and electronic periodicals. Enter the title of the journal and search by periodical title. If you only know part of the title, you can search by periodical title keyword.
If you need to find an article in a database, use the Find Articles & Databases page. The most commonly used databases are listed at the top of the page. You can search for databases by name or subject and also in Vanderbilt Library's A-Z list. If you are not sure where to start, you can also use one of the general databases listed in the lower right box.
If you need further assistance, please consult the library you need. You can find contact information for all the libraries on the Jean and Alexander Heard Library's Phone Numbers & Addresses page.
