Popular magazines such as Time, People and Psychology Today,  can be searched in several of the library's databases.

To search by subject, Academic Search Premier is a good place to start. Go to the library's homepage under RESEARCH ASSISTANCE > DATABASES.  This will show you an alphabetical list of our databases.

Once you are in Academic Search Premier, type your search terms in to the search box, then click SEARCH.  On the left, scroll down to SOURCE TYPES and click on MAGAZINES.  This will limit the results to articles from popular magazines.

In Proquest Central select ADVANCED SEARCH then SOURCE TYPE and click on MAGAZINES.

To search for a specific journal, from the library's homepage under Research Assistance > Find Journals > [type the title of the journal, e.g. Time]  You will retrieve a list of databases that include Time. Be certain to double check the dates covered by the various databases.

If you have any questions or would like additional help, please visit our Ask a Librarian page.
