Does W&L Have This Article?

You can use an option on the library homepage entitled Journal Search to enter the title of the journal or magazine you are looking for. 

Be sure to take note of the limited years of coverage (if any) for each option.

Scholarly Sources

Mostly valuable for journal and magazine articles published within the past twenty or so years, although some older articles are available.

Article Databases -- News Sources

Here are databases which specialize in searching and providing texts of newpaper articles published from the 1990's to date.  (In some databases, earlier articles are also included.)

Finding Articles -- Another Option

A prominent new-ish option on the library's homepage is a database called Primo, which contains a lot of links to articles and other materials, but it does NOT provide you with access to everything to which the library subscribes.  It's fine as a starting point, but probably will not adequately cover a lot of research topics.

For coverage that focuses on academic journals in politics, media and mass communications, sociology, psychology, business, and related fields, consult the databases above
