Answer

To find an article when you have a citation (information about the article):

Example Citation

Training Dogs and Training Humans: Symbolic Interaction and Dog Training.  Greenebaum, Jessica B. Anthrozoos. June 2010, Volume 23 Issue 2, p129-141.

Search Process

From the SuperSearch tab (first tab on the library homepage)

  • Type some of the Article Title using quotations--but no puncuation into the search box. (Ex. "Training dogs and training humans")
  • Choose the Title button and press Search
  • Click on the .pdf of the article if it comes up

If this does not work then:

From the Journals A - Z list (link found under the SuperSearch tab)

  • Look or search for the journal by title (Ex. Anthrozoos)
  • Link to the database that has the journal by using the link in the right column on the list
  • Find the publication name using the "Publications" link (usually at the top of the database page)
  • Use the publication year, volume, and issue, then page number to browse for the article.

NOTE: If we do not subscribe to the journal you will need to request the article with Interlibrary Loan - FREE.
