How Do I find Journal Articles on a Topic?

To find articles on a particular topic start with the Search Primo on the library homepage. You can limit to "articles only" to help eliminate other source types, such as books or ebooks. This will filter your results to just articles that the library has access to.

Type your search terms into the box.

Use the filter options on the left side of the results list to refine your search. Here you can limit to peer-reviewed articles or refine by type, subject, date, etc. Click on the article title to access the full text.

It is important to be note that Primo does not contain all of the library resources. EOU Library subscribes to many databases and not all database content will be available in Primo. Often it is best to go directly to a subject-specific database in order to find more focused results and to conduct more exhaustive research.
