Academic Journals with image of notebooks stacked on top of each other

Academic journals publish peer-reviewed articles about a specific subject area. They are a great source for current and emerging research on a topic. Learn more about academic journals on our 'Types of information' page.

A great place to start finding articles is through a general Library Search. This allows you to search the entire library catalogue and other resources (e.g. journal or newspaper articles, reports) in one simple search. You can start a search using the box below, or via the Library homepage.
