Library subject guide for Computing

mySearch

mySearch is an interface which allows you to search across a range of library resources simultaneously, including books, journal articles and databases.

Why use journals?

Print and electronic journals are an important source of specialist information:

  • Journals are published daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and annually therefore the material is very up to date.
  • Journals are the first place that research is published.
  • Many journals are peer reviewed; the articles have been critically reviewed by experts in the field before being published.

Finding print journals

If you need access to a print journal, look for it on mySearch. The record will provide you with details of what years we have in stock. All our print journals are held on the ground floor of the library in the rolling stacks.
