To locate magazine and journal articles, you can also use electronic databases like NC LIVE (North Carolina Libraries for Virtual Education) and SIRS (Social Issues Resources Series). The articles you will find there are the same as those you would find in a print journal or magazine; the only difference is that they have been digitized and placed in a searchable database format.

The tutorials listed on the next page will guide you through the process of searching NC LIVE and SIRS.
