How to Find ArticlesFinding an article is a little more complicated than finding a book. Although the titles of journals and magazines are included in the NCSU Libraries catalog, the titles of articles are not. That means that you can use the catalog to find out that the NCSU Libraries subscribes to Newsweek, but you can't use the catalog to find out what articles are in each issue. To find articles, you must use an article database (also known as a periodical index). In this section, you will learn: - what an article database is,
- what information you can find in a database,
- how to choose a database from the hundreds NCSU subscribes to,
- how to search a specific database called Academic Search Premier to find a list of articles, and
- how to find an article that's listed in a database.
