Finding Journals and Magazines in the Library

2 resources available.
restricted - Restricted to WMU users open access - Open Access
When you have identified an article you wish to see, use these sources to find out if it is available in the WMU Libraries. They include information on print and online versions.

If you cannot find the journal (or other source) at WMU, you may be able to get the article through interlibrary loan.

Journal FinderFind electronic and print journals available at WMU. Search for a journal title, look for a specific article if you have a citation, or browse through the A - Z list of online journals, magazines and newspapers at WMU.

Librarian's Comment: Also links to WestCat for finding journals that are available in print.

WestCat open access WestCat is WMU's online library catalog. It can be used to identify books (including online books), government documents, journals, videos, sound recordings, slides and other items that the University Libraries has in its collections. WestCat can be searched by title, author, subject heading, keyword, call number, and more.

Librarian's Comment: Using the basic search box, do a search on the journal title. Omit a, an, and the at the beginning of the title. If you find the journal, be sure to look at the "library has" and "currient issues" information (below the call number) to be sure WMU has the issue you need.
