Current periodicals are not circulated. They are located on the lower level of the library. You may read them anywhere throughout the library.
Many journals are accessible electronically, though some are restricted to use by the AU community. On the library home page select "Find Journals" (tabs about the search box) and enter the title of the journal. Note that this is a keyword search, not a subject search. The results will specify the years of coverage contained in each database.
