Journals

The library owns many journals published by professional and academic associations. The print collection is located on the fourth floor of the library. However, due to limited space, most of them are in storage. You can still access the electronic versions in 2 different ways.

First, you should check the library catalog. Type your keywords in the search box, then in the drop-down menu, choose EJournals/EBooks, and click Go.
