How do I locate the full text of specific journal articles?
- Begin by looking up the journal name using eJournals@emory, a collective database of online, full text journals to which Emory's libraries subscribe
- Can't find it? Next, search EUCLID, the university's online catalog, for a specific journal title; electronic access wil provide a hyperlink to the appropriate database and access print access will refer you to the library's stacks
- Still looking? Click on the Interlibrary Loan button in EUCLID to request the article be located outside the university
How do I search for articles on a particular topic?
- Use the Business Library's eResources page which contains an alphabetical and subject listing of article and data-focused databases
- Clicking on the database name will take you to an FAQ page for that database. You will see options to connect from on or off campus
How can I identify all the databases applicable to my topic?
- Select the broad subject (e.g. accounting, management, etc.) on the eResources's Browse Electronic Resources by Subject page to display an annotated list of all the relevant electronic databases
Where do I locate passwords to access some of the databases?
- If a database FAQ page indicates that access requires a password, look to the Passwords folder in your Library Information conference on First Class for a complete listing of all usernames/passwords
Following is a selection of some of the most frequently used databases
- ABI Inform
- JSTOR
- ISI Web of Knowledge
- Wiley
- Science Direct
- and more...
