An alternative approach for locating articles in eJournals is to first locate the eJournal by its title, then look up the specific article. Locating an eJournal is also a way to be able to browse contents of issues, or to initiate search for articles in only that journal title.
From the UW Libraries' home page,
Step 1. - click the "eJournals & eBooks" tab.
Step 2. - Select the "eJournals & eBooks" button from the page that opens.
Step 3. - Select the eJournals radio button and type the journal title (without quotation marks) into the search bar, then click the "Search" button. eJournal titles can also be searched alphabetically or by subject category (such as "Engineering and Applied Sciences") but the results lists tend to be lengthy.
Step 4 - The result screen will provide options for navigating to the journal resource. Note the date ranges included in the collections and click the link for the appropriate choice. Also note that older volumes and publication dates may only be available in print format. Clicking the link to the UW Print Collection will open the catalog record with information about the call number and library location.
Step 5 - If you have citation information for a specific article, you can navigate there more directly by using the "Look up Article" link, which takes you to the "Citation Finder" menu. Enter the information you have, such as date (year), volume, or initial page number. Note that there is a field available to locate an article directly by entering its DOI (digital object identifier) number, if known. (Note: Articles can often be found this way even with incomplete citation information.)
