HY241 The Emergence of Modern America, 1919-1942   Tags: block 1, history  

Browse the bound historical journals on the second floor of Tutt Library to find articles.

These journals are arranged alphabetically by title and then by date. Just pull the journal with the event date you're researching, and you'll likely find articles about your topic in individual issues.

For your assignment, the print version of Reader's Guide is the easiest and fastest way to find citations for articles.

• Print Reader's Guide (1890 - February 1983; second floor of Tutt Library)

Some other online indexes that might be worth a look:

TIME Magazine

• Publisher's online archive (searching is tricky; 1923 - 2009)
• Academic Search Complete (easier searching, but transcribed fulltext does not show the original magazine layout; 1923 - present)

LIFE Magazine (available on Google; 1936-1972)

Once you have a citation for an article, you can see if Tutt Library has a copy of the journal you need by searching Find Journals. You can also use Find Journals to search for articles within a specific magazine.
