PsycARTICLES®
If it is psychology you are interested in, then
this database is for you! It contains
full-text publications of the American Psychological Association (APA) and other relevant
publishers, e.g. the Canadian Psychological Association, so you have access to high quality peer-reviewed scholarly articles. In addition to journal articles, there is
access to book reviews. Coverage includes
current material and dates back many years, e.g. to the first issues of most
APA journals.
You can save yourself time by using the
search tips in the Help section, e.g. the “…” symbols used for Phrase searches help by ensuring you find documents
that contain the phrase you want (if you don’t use the Phrase search symbols you
will probably get some results where one word is in one place in the document and
the other word is somewhere else in the document thus it might be nothing to do
with the subject you are searching for).
Don’t be daunted by this vast collection as
it can be narrowed to a more manageable number, e. g. by Field searches and Refining
the Results. The Subject Librarian,
Erica Fothergill, can be contacted if you want some help with using PsycARTICLES® (Erica can be contacted at the
Townhill Library, telephone 01792 482113).
