FINDING BUSINESS ARTICLES

If you are unable to locate the full text of an article, search for the journal title in BrowZine Journal Search or Maag Journal Finder. If Maag does not offer full-text access, use Request Forms to request the article electronically. InterLibrary Loan can locate most articles and will email your YSU email with a PDF attachment. This service usually takes a few days but is dependent upon other institutions fulfilling the request.
