Finding it from your reading list

Journal Articles.

You can determine that a reference is a journal article by the inclusion of a volume number, an issue number or month of publication and page numbers. Publishers and place of publication are NOT included.

The title of the journal always appears before the volume, issue and page numbers in a reference.
A typical journal citation looks like this:

Randall, D. The Kipling Given, Ondaatje's Take: Reading Kim through The English Patient. Journal of Commonwealth & Postcolonial Studies. 5(2):131-44. 1998

Ty, E. The Other Questioned: Exoticicism and Displacement in Michael Ondaatje's The English Patient. International Fiction Review. 27(1-2):10-19. 2000.

When searching for journals on the catalogue you must search by the journal title NOT the title of the article.

If you are looking for an extensive, more in-depth, introduction to the catalogue, please go to our Catalogue Tutorial [Go to Catalogue Tutorial]

To find out what articles have been written on your specific topic you will need to use an electronic database. [Go to How to find journal articles on your topic.]

If your references have been placed in reserve, or in e-reserve, then you have additional ways of finding them.
