Here are some tips for finding articles, journals, and periodicals.

Articles on a Topic
To find articles on a specific topic, search one of the Library's many databases relevant to Neuroscience and Behavior. Databases are available on Library computers to all and off campus to UMass students, faculty, staff, and affiliates with an OIT account; enter your OIT username and password when prompted.

Journals on a Topic
To search for journals and periodicals on a topic in the Library Catalog, conduct a Subject search in the Library Catalog and add the word "periodicals" to your search; e.g., neurosciences periodicals, brain periodicals, brain research periodicals, animal behavior periodicals, etc.

Journals by Title
To search for a specific journal or periodical, conduct a "Journal title begins with" search in the UMass Amherst Libraries Catalog. Note location (UM W.E.B. Du Bois, UM Science, etc.), and call number. Journals in the W.E.B. Du Bois Library are shelved in the book stacks: Call Number Locations.
