The University of Oregon Library offers free access to many online periodical indexes and abstracts. These indexes contain large databases of articles from many journals as well as cataloging information for the University of Oregon and an abstract of most articles.
Periodical indexes are also usually specific to a field such as psychology or medicine.
Unfortunately, there is no index specific to speech and hearing science or linguistics and their related fields. However, the psychology and medical indexes, PsychInfo and Medline, index the majority of, if not all, journals relating to our profession. Access to these periodical indexes over the Internet is by subscription only which the University holds and allows its students, faculty and staff to use. Therefore, for security reasons, you must be connected to the University's computer network in order to access web-based periodical indexes. If you are a student from another university or research institution, chances are you also have free access to many online indexes including those used for our field.
