Box Repository: Find Articles (reuseable page)

Question: What value lies in articles?  Why, for example, would a researcher choose a journal article over a book?

Answer: Journal articles offer recent, in-depth research on a topic and frequently focus on very narrow topics.

Question: Why would you use Google Scholar?

Answer: Google Scholar identifies scholarly research materials from a broad range of subject areas.

Google Scholar offers a "cited by" feature - it will display a list of documents which cited the document you originally retrieved. This can be useful in determing how influential a source has been.  The list only includes documents available in Google Scholar, though.

Look for the Find Full-Text @ TU link to access available full-text articles.  Or, go into the preferences of Google Scholar and select Temple University from Library Links.

Here are a few places to start looking for articles.

Can't Locate Your Article Online?

• Use the button available from most databases to locate the entire article online.
• If the article is available online, click on the Article or Journal links.
• If your article is not available in print or via another research database, request it using interlibrary loan.

If the journal does not appear in this search or the available date range does not match the date you need, then you should request the article through ILLIAD.
