How to use Journal Finder


Journal Finder lists all the journals you have access to through the Tavistock and Portman library.
It replaces our old "One-Stop-Shop for Journals".

Journal Finder will help you access the full-text of those journals in a few clicks or let you know if we have it at the library in print.

To learn how to access and use Journal Finder, you can follow this tutorial or have a look at the presentation below, or the video underneath.





And don't forget to reach out if you've got any problem. Just email the library!
