Journal Articles

Your professors will require that you find and properly cite scholarly journal articles for your research assignments. There are several ways to search for journal articles. You can search for articles in OneSearch or you can go directly into the library subject databases (see Access the Databases).

Search for journals by title or ISSN Search journals by title or by ISSN (International Standard Serial Number), an 8-digit code used to identify newspapers, journals, magazines and periodicals of all kinds and on all media–print and electronic.

A to Z Databases & More Access a list of Adelphi library databases by title or subject area.

 

Search for a specific journal title by entering the name of the journal in the OneSearch box on the Adelphi Libraries homepage:
