Finding Journals at the Health Sciences Library   Tags: finding_journals  

To find out if the library owns a journal go to the Catalog (UNC-CH Libraries).

Type the full name of the journal (not the abbreviation) in the text box. Use the PubMed Journals Database to translate the journal title abbreviation into the journal title. 

Your search will be more efficient if you change the dropdown box to "in Journal Title."  Then click the Search button.

The image below displays catalog search results. The first result, #1 Public Health [electronic resource], provides access to the electronic journal. Clicking the link labeled "Full text available via the UNC-Chapel Hill Libraries" takes you to a page that tells you which years are available electronically through the library. Click the link that includes the year you need. If you are off campus, you will be prompted for your Onyen and password.  

The second record, #2 Public Health [serial], gives you information about what is available in print.  Clicking on the journal title, Public Health, opens a page with more information. Click +Expand to see the full list of volumes available.
