Review

Students and faculty of LCSC have access to thousands of magazine and journal articles. 

Some of these articles are in paper format in the Library.  You can come in and browse the shelves to see the latest issues of the magazines we receive.

But the easiest way to find an article on a particular subject is to use an index that points you to articles on your topic.  Some of these articles will be on the shelves of the Library and some will be available online.

This tutorial will show you how to use our online indexes (also called databases) to find articles.

The list at left shows the sections of this tutorial.  Feel free to jump ahead by clicking on the name of the area you want to see.
