How to decipher and use your reading list

Which one's a journal article?

Move your mouse over the citation to see what the various details are.

Often your lecturer will ask you to read articles taken from journals. Sometimes these readings will have been placed on Reserve, sometimes you will be expected to find them yourself. In both cases you need to recognise what you are looking for.

Some clues that it is a journal article:

• there are no publishing details
• there are volume or issue details
• there seem to be two titles - use the journal title to search the catalogue
