Many university libraries extend borrowing privileges to local residents for a fee. Fees vary and usually provide a more limited range of services than what a registered student at that university could expect. Browsing issues of specific journals is one way to find relevant articles. A more efficient, and less frustrating way is to use an abstract or index to search for articles on any given topic. Be aware that the Library does not subscribe to all of the journals cited in the indexes.
Some journals are now available electronically and more are becoming available all the time.
In some cases, full-text of specific articles is provided by a particular index e.g. CBCA Full Text. If you find a citation for an article that you are interested in reading and it is not available in full-text through the index you are searching, note the journal title, volume, issue and page numbers. We will have articles that are located at Guelph copied and delivered to you via courier. Do not use TUGdoc for Guelph items .
