How Do I?

Find a Periodical at Olympic College Libraries


First, go to the Periodical Holdings List by clicking on that link from the Libraries’ Finding Articles web page.  Use one of the following three methods to determine if the Libraries have the full text of the periodical you want:


  • Type the periodical title (not the article title) in the search box.  (e.g. Nursing Times) or;

  • Click the first letter of the periodical name (not article title) in the "A to Z" list to see an alphabetical list of journal titles beginning with that letter; or

  • Browse a subject or specific discipline using the dropdown box (e.g. Education).

Next, click on a link below the periodical name. This will take you either into the database that has articles in that periodical (e.g. ProQuest or EbscoHost) or into the record for the periodical in the Library Catalog.
