| The Library subscribes
to 200 magazines, journals and newspapers.
A printable list of titles and holdings
is available on the Library website.
Current issues are displayed alphabetically
by title on the racks near the circulation
desk. Newspapers are displayed on
a rack near the entrance. Periodicals
contain the most current information
available in print. As such, they
provide an essential component in
the academic research process. Magazines
and journals, both current issues
and back issues, may be checked
out for 7 days.
Microfilm
The Library holds back issues
of approximately 170 periodical
titles on microfilm. The microfilm
is alphabetically arranged in
cabinets with a reader-printer
located nearby. Library staff
will be glad to demonstrate how
to use the reader-printer machine.
Printed copies cost 10 cents per
page.
