Journals and Journal Articles
To see if we have access to a specific journal, look up the title using the Journal 大发体育在线_大发体育-投注|官网er (Library Search). If we have the title, you will be able to link to it online or, in the case of print journals, you will see where it is shelved in the library.
When you have a reference to a specific journal article that you would like to read, enter the article title into Library Search.
A-Z Databases
Databases allow us to search the content of thousands of journal articles by keyword, as well as provide us with access to the full text of many of them. Some databases are multi-disciplinary whilst others are discipline-specific. Choose a database to search from the A-Z Databases list or consult your relevant subject guide for recommended databases.
DCU students and staff can access these resources both on and off campus.
Currently registered staff and students of DCU can access all of the Library's databases, e-journals and e-books off-campus.
To take advantage of this facility, always start your search from the Library catalogue. Then, simply click on the database, e-journal or e-book you wish to consult. For many resources, entering your DCU email address and password when prompted will give access.
Some resources will require you to select your institution at the outset, while others require a personal account to be created for the individual resource.
On all occasions you will be prompted when accessing the resource. If you experience any problems accessing our resources please contact us via email: library@dcu.ie or via our library Chat service.
These electronic resources subscribed to by DCU Library may be used within the DCU network, or off-campus, by DCU registered staff and students only.
Use of these resources is for the purpose of non-commercial DCU-related teaching, learning, research and administration work only. It is not permitted to facilitate database access to any other person(s) for any other purpose. Such use will breach licence terms and may leave the parties concerned, and/or users as defined above who facilitate such third party use, open to legal sanction. Systematic downloading or retention of information from databases using robots, spiders or manual means is not permitted. Where publishers suspect misuse in the form of systematic downloading they will cut off access to resources for the whole DCU community, thus depriving responsible users of access to material for their research and learning.
