Browzine Web

Welcome to our Browzine Web tutorial. Browzine is an application that lists our electronic journals in a web-friendly format. 

Users can find journals by searching by title or ISSN number, or browsing by subject.

Results with red icons are categories of subjects, while blue icons are journals. Articles can be accessed by clicking on journal titles and then articles titles listed within the issue listed.

Click the arrows at the bottom to progress through the tutorial.

Our Entire Collection?

1 of 2

Browzine Web easily retrieves electronic journals and articles for library users. However, it doesn't always show the full extent of our e-journal or print collection.

For example, perform a search for the journal Labour Economics.

Note that no results are retrieved for this item. Why is this? The reason is that Browzine only links to journals that have a DOI (Direct Object Identifier) number for information placed online.Not all journals have a DOI number.

Accessing Articles

Once a journal is selected, the volume and years of publication are listed beneath the title on the left of the screen. Using the drop-down will display different years and volumes/issues of availability. 

Go back to the home page and search for American Journal of Philology. Click on the first article shown.

 

 

 

Limits - Date Published

Next, search for the journal Animal (ISSN number 1751-7311). 

Note the orange message at the top of the screen. This is an embargo, meaning that we do not have the most current access to articles from this journal. Use the drop-down to find the year that does provide access to this journal.

ILL via Browzine

Search for American Economic Journal: Macroeconomics. Say you were interested in the article Technology and the Changing Family. It's the first listed article, but it's under a publisher embargo.

While we do not have access to this article, users can still click the link to it. When clicked, another page is opened with a link to our Interlibrary Loan form. Click this link.
