Introduction
Create your own links
to online journal articles using this procedure or email Judy Brophy (brophy@dwc.edu)
or Linda Heron (heron@dwc.edu) to have them created for you.
Directions
1. Determine if the journal you want is one
of the 15,539 full text journals or newspapers
in one of our databases.
-
Access
Baddour Library’s Database page at
http://frontier.dwc.edu/screens/artdat4.html
-
Click
the link List of Journals with online full text.
-
Type the
name of the journal in the box after “Search for a Journal Title”.
-
The
entry will tell you in what data base the journal appears and for what time
period. For example, the Journal of Advertising is available in 3 different
databases for 4 different time periods:

2.
Access the database where the
article resides and search for the article, using author, title, journal title.
3. When you have found the
article, look at the summary to find a persistent URL.

In
databases that do not give you a URL in the body of the document, highlight and
copy the URL from the address bar in the browser.
Note: This procedure
does not work with the Lexis-Nexis database. URLs to Lexis-Nexis
articles are not permanent and therefore you can not create a link directly to
them that will last more than a few hours. You can, however, create a link to
the database and give the students enough information to find the article
themselves.
