2 Strategies to Finding a Known Article

You can quickly find a known journal article through the Main search box, Library Homepage

Main search box is a search engine that searches the some of the collections of UofC Libraries and Cultural resources for books, journal articles, manuscripts, works in the collection of the Nickle Arts Museum, archival material and locally digitized collections on your topic. 

Search the ARTICLE TITLE in quotes to quickly find the fulltext.

 

NOTE: The Library Homepage has changed since the video below was created, but the process to find a known article is the same. Type the title of the article in the main search box.

  1. Go directly to scholar.google.ca
    You do not need to go through the library to find articles in Google Scholar
  2. Type the title of the article in the search box. Putting the title in quotes will help to find it quickly.

 

You will need to set up Google Scholar to know you have access to the University of Calgary journals.
