The link in your classroom 

Usually, there will be a direct link to the article in your class, which you can find by taking the following steps.

1. Locate the "Course Information" section on your classroom's homepage and click Required Resources or Recommended Resources.

2. Then click on the link to be taken directly to the article.

What if the link does not work, or there is no link included? 

When looking for a specific article, you will want to search Library OneSearch or navigate to the database where the article is located if that information is available. You will then enter a few pieces of information from the citation. Here is a quick video that will explain this process:

Here are a few more tips: 

  • This method of finding an article works best in Library OneSearch, but you might also want to go directly to the database that has that article such as ProQuest, EBSCOhost, SAGE, and JSTOR if that information is available.
  • If your article is located in ProQuest make sure you select ProQuest (Search all ProQuest databases).
  • If the article you need doesn't have an author, try navigating to the database and entering the title of the article "in quotations" and then clicking search. 

If you still have questions you can chat in real-time with a librarian here.
