To find out if we have a specific periodical (magazine, journal, or newspaper) in our collection, use the Periodicals search page. Then type in the title or part of the title. In the search results, you will find a list of matching titles along with links to the databases with copies of the periodical.
Keep in mind that the articles may not necessarily look like the online version you would read if you paid for that periodical directly. Instead you might see a list of articles from whichever day you click on, or the articles may be available without any images. Different databases might provide the materials in different formats, so it may be helpful to try a few different sources to see which format works best for you.
For off-campus access you will be required to input your SURF ID and password.
If you need help accessing the databases, you can use our 24/7 online chat service, 'Ask A Librarian' accessed from the library's homepage.
