Course Affordability

If your instructor has assigned an article to read for class, they likely have included a link in the class canvas page. In case they have not included a link, or that link has broken, follow the steps below to find it in the Library Catalog.

Finding Assigned Articles

If you have been assigned an article to read for class, always check to see if the library has access! Popular titles like The New York Times, The Atlantic, and more are accessible through the library. 

The easiest way to search for these articles is to use the Library Catalog's Journal Search. Follow the steps below to do so:

1. Start by going to the Library Catalog.
2. Above the search bar you will see different search options. Select "Journal Search".
3. Search the publication title of the article you need in the search bar. You may see more than one result with the title you are looking for; check the date and the type of material (for example, newspaper) to make sure it is what you are looking for.
4. When you have found the correct result, click on the title to open the record and see where the material can be viewed online. The library may have many different databases to access one publication, but any listed will work.
5. Simply search the title of the article you are looking for in one of the listed databases.

If you have any trouble finding or can't find an article, check out our FAQ page on finding Newspapers, our How to Find Articles LibGuide, or Ask a Librarian! You can always request an article that the Library doesn't own through our Interlibrary Loan service.
