The Full-Text Journal Finder can help you to determine whether the journal you are looking for has full-text access at the Whittemore Library. Type in the journal name or the first few words of the name to see if your journal is full-text online.
E-Journals:
Enter the title of the journal you need
in the Full Text Journal Finder
to link to the journal if it is available online
through a database and/or the publisher.
Print Journals (paper, microfilm and microfiche):
To find a listing of where a print journal, magazine, or newspaper is located (either upstairs in the Periodicals Area
on the Upper Mezzanine (UM) or downstairs in the Lower Reading Room [LRR] one flight down from the main floor in the Lower Mezzanine).
1. Enter the title of the journal you need
in the Full Text Journal Finder (see link above)
2. For a list of F.S.U.'s print periodical holdings (paper or microforms), look for the F.S.U Periodical Holdings List, in the red binders

These databases are particularly helpful when researching the subject of English.
The general research databases can provide an excellent jumping off point, but don't forget to check databases specialized to your discipline as well!
