As you read through an article, the Literature Review section will point to other sources used by the article's author to develop the background for the article.  Pay attention to these and highlight the ones that seem most useful to your work.

Other sections may also include citations, so make that highlighter your best friend.

Follow the in-text citations back to the References section to get the full article citation.

Now that you are doing the searching, you can see why formatting those references well is important.

Now that you have the full citation, you can:

Use Google Scholar to find the article by article title and then use the FIND IT @ UVM button to get the full article (the quick smash-and-grab method)

OR

Use the "Journal Titles" button on the Howe Library homepage to find the journal.  Once you find the journal, use the year, volume, and issue to hunt down the full text (the sophisticated and comprehensive method)

NOTE:

When you pull up a journal title, you will first need to match up the year with our different electronic collections. 

Make sure we have access to the year you need.  Click on the appropriate collection for that year's access.

If it's an older article, we might own it in print.  This pop up box will tell you where you can find it if we own it in print.
