Periodicals are arranged by title. Periodicals from earlier in the current year maybe found by lifting the display shelf. Back issues of periodicals, those before the current year, are kept on the second floor shelved by the title. It includes not only the periodicals found in paper or microform in the library, but also includes those available in full-text on our online indexes. As a means of preservation and storage, periodicals are often photographed with a special camera and put on microfiche or microfilm.
Microfiche is a transparent sheet and microfilm is a roll of film on a reel.
The collection is arranged by the title of the periodical. To view periodicals on microfiche and microfilm, use the library s reader-printers, which allow you to read the material and to make copies. If you need assistance in operating the reader-printers, ask a reference librarian at the reference desk. The library home page provides direct links to internet resources in the various subject areas taught at the college. Links are also provided to general reference web sites, which include topics such as maps and geographical information, directories and phone books, and travel and weather.
