Searching for journal articles (Abstract & Indexing Databases)
Should you want to undertake a more thorough search for research materials/literature try searching the following abstract and indexing databases. Unlike our other databases, generally you will only find the abstract or executive summary of articles within these databases. Conference papers are also available.
Top Tip! Look out for the ‘Find it’ icons in your search results lists within these databases as this tool will direct you to the full-text of the article if it's available within one of our subscribed services
