The record for the print journal will indicate the library's holdings in print, micro, and if electronic access is available. To locate specific articles from journals and newspapers, you will need to use various print indexes and electronic databases. The Reference Department will assist you. To determine if this access is available for a specific title, check VUCat the library's online catalog by either calling up that title's record or by searching the E-Journal list of titles available in electronic format. The Periodical Department currently subscribes to approximately 125 micro titles for heavily-used journals and popular newspapers, like the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Washington Post.
Staff is available to assist patrons with the retrieval of reels and the use of the equipment.
As a service to faculty, the Periodical Department will photocopy articles from the library's periodical collection and deliver the copies via campus mail within 24 hours. For titles NOT in the library collection, requests should go to the Interlibrary Loan office. The Periodical Department is responsible for binding two copies of every thesis for the library's collection. As a service to graduate students, the Department will also bind personal copies for a nominal fee.
