The library also holds a growing collection of individual articles in the Short Loan Collection. These can be found on the catalogue by doing an Author-Title search on the Article author and title. These are for use in the Library only and are not to be copied. How will I know when the next issue of a journal is due Some journals are issued weekly, others monthly, quarterly, or yearly. Generally you can find out how often a periodical is published from checking the previous issue.
Publication dates can be quite fluid.
Sometimes at the beginning of a week, month, year, sometimes in the middle, sometimes at the end. If you think that a particular issue of a journal should have arrived but is not available on the shelves and you have checked both the current periodicals shelves and the back copies, ask the librarian on duty at the Enquiry Desk to assist you. What do I do if the journal I'm looking for isn't on the shelf You must bear in mind when looking for a journal that it may already be in use by another student. If you are unable to find a particular issue of a journal and you have checked the periodicals shelving trolley which is situated near the current periodical shelves, ask the librarian on duty at the Enquiry Desk to assist you. Back copies of recent newspapers are kept at Canterbury Library on the shelves near the Library Study Room.
