The easiest way to access a journal article is by searching LibrarySearch on the library homepage. It often works best with just the journal article title, not including the author or the rest of a citation.

This will tell you if we subscribe to the journal and give a link to the full text if we do. If we don't, select the "Check for request options" link and follow the directions to request the article.

Of course, if you have any trouble finding the article you need, please don't hesitate to stop by the Research Desk in Ladd Library, or send us an email at researchlibrarians@bates.edu.
