More Detailed Find Books
Typing in the Basic Search will search the Library Catalog for items that
literally match the letters and spaces entered from left to right in the
search box. This means that you must know the exact title or exact author.
Typing in the Keyword Search will search the Library Catalog for items that
include the words typed in the fields selected but not in a specific order.
Additionally, in Keyword Search you may add ? to the end of a word to find
alternate endings (e.g. toxic? Will retrieve items with the words toxic,
toxicology, toxicologist).
Information About Supplements to:
Articles and chapters within these titles are most often cited
as journal articles (article author, article title, journal title, volume,
issue, pages) however because each issue has an overall theme, we have cataloged
each issue by the individual title of the issue so that the entire issue
may be located in a keyword search of the Library Catalog. These may be checked
out as though they are books. These pages provide a list of the individual
titles, links to initiate a PubMed search to display the tables of contents
with the most recent articles first, and links to search the OSU Library
Catalog to see if the volume is checked out. Other series that are individually
cataloged include Methods in Enzymology and the supplements to the Compendium
on Continuing Education for the Practicing Veterinarian – we will develop
individual lists for these titles as time permits.
Detailed Find Journals
Finding Journals in OSU Library
Catalog
Search for the full name of the journal in the OSU Library
Catalog to display OSU Libraries subscription details. (Tools to
assist you with translating a journal title abbreviation into a full journal
title)
Some online and electronic journal subscriptions have records
in the OSU Library Catalog. The online links to some are in the same catalog
record that describes the print subscription with the Library Location “Electronic
Resource.” (JAVMA is an example of this.) Some online subscriptions
have their own record and have “computer file” (Journal of animal
breeding and genetics is an example of this) or “electronic resource” (Journal
of Ethology is an example of this) listed at the end of the journal title.
Additionally there are catalog records for electronic versions of journals
that are not online - in the Brock Memorial Library these are most often
items located in Veterinary Medicine Computer Reference (the journal ‘Swine
Health and Production is an example of this). Occasionally, a catalog record
will include the electronic address of a journal as part of the catalog record
information but this does not indicate that OSU has an online subscription
(Clinical orthopaedics and related research is an example of this).
