Print indexes are kept on shelves in the library's periodicals area. Indexes direct you to articles in journals. Some articles may be available in print journals at VWC or in online databases. Articles which are not owned by Hofheimer Library can be borrowed through Interlibrary Loan. Consult journal locator to locate a journal or ask library staff x2132 for assistance. Most of the library's print indexes are useful for locating older articles. Use library databases for locating more recent articles.
