How to find journal articles

Summary

The key things to remember about finding journal articles are:

• journal articles are a useful source of information
• being able to identify a journal from a citation is essential
• many of the articles you need may already be on Reserve
• if the article is not on Reserve, you need to look for the journal title, not the article title
• "Linked resources" offer easy access to material
• other libraries may hold journals that Monash doesn't
• use databases to find other articles on your topics
• always evaluate what you find
• acknowledge what you've read
