Some popular periodicals are also available on microfiche in Media Services in the Main Library. Journals with call numbers are shelved on fourth and fifth floors. Magazines and journals written in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean are shelved on the third floor in the East Asian Studies collection. Departmental libraries each have their own selection of periodicals in specific subject areas. You will need to use an index.
Indexes are available in print and electronic formats and are found in all libraries on campus.
The Libraries' Gateway to Online Resources contains many indexes. Ask a librarian for help in selecting an index appropriate to your topic. A computer-assisted instruction program, Library Explorer , contains information on selecting and using indexes. If you do not find it there, and it is an older publication, check the books at the Information Desk called Serial Publications in the University of Iowa Libraries. Both InfoHawk and Serial Publications will tell you which library has the publication.
