Publications are often quite subject-specific, as they are written to disseminate information around a specific trade or subject matter. Therefore, searching within the publication in which your original article appeared may lead you to similar or related articles.

You may locate a particular publication within the Library by going to Publication Finder (Pub Finder) which is also linked in the Resources Guide. Enter the name of the publication you would like to find and press search. The results screen will tell you if the Library subscribes to the publication, what years the Library subscribes to, and in which database(s) the full text is contained, as shown below.

 

Click on the linked database name in order to browse the publication by volume/issue, or to search within the publication. Many databases will display a “Search within” box into which you can enter your keywords.
