How do I find online Journal articles?

For information about using our online resources to find journal/newspaper articles please see our online guide Finding Articles

What if I find something you don't have?

If you come across a particular journal/newspaper article that we don't have access to, we may be able to obtain it for you using our inter library loans service. Before putting in a request please check that we do not hold an electronic copy of the journal title using either BrowZine or Library Search. See the Inter Library Loans help page for more information.
