Finding Journals and Newspapers

Dominican University subscribes to most major national and local newspapers. Print copies are located on the lower level of the library. Many are available online as well. Follow instructions below to find them.

Scholarly journals and magazines

  1. Use the Journal List link to search for the journal in the Dominican University holdings.  You can also view a booklet with all our print periodical holdings at the reference desk.
  2. Type in the journal title and click search. If Dominican University subscribes to the journal, you will see a list of records. You may see only electronic holdings, only print, or a mix. Check the dates on the records carefully to find the correct link. If all the dates will include the article you need, then you can choose whichever you want. If the journal is available in print, you will find it on the lower level of the library. Journals are shelved by title. A reference librarian can help you locate the correct volume.
  3. If you get a message "Sorry, this search returned no results," then it is likely that Dominican doesn't subscribe to the journal. If you think we might have it, check with a  reference librarian who can help you locate a copy of this article. If we don't have the journal, you can submit an interlibrary loan request and have a scanned copy of the article sent to you.
  4. If the database you are searching contains the full text of the article you need, you will see links to the PDF and/or HTML full text.

If the database you are searching does not contain the full text of the article you need, look for a link that says "Find full text in other databases." This link launches Citation Linker. Citation Linker will check all of Dominican's other databases for the full text.
