Conducting a Journal Search
Journals
To look for a journal go to the blue bar at the top of the webpage and click on "Search Journal". A search box like the one below will appear.
Then, type in the keywords or title of the journal, browse the results and click on the journal title of your interest to see the complete electronic access options. Once in the journal record scroll down to the "View Online" section and click the "Show License" button. Then, click one of the "Full Text Availability" options to check for dates available. Clicking any of these options will take out of GLOCAT and land you into the database that host the journal. (See video below)
