IV.    SELECTED SUBSCRIPTION DATABASES FOR ONLINE FULL-TEXT JOURNALS

EBSCOHOST (includes ATLA Religion Database with ATLASerials): Required ID & Password for remote access in EbscoHost. Please do not neglect consulting several related databases. EBSCOHOST: ATLA, SocIndex, PsycArticles, MEDLINE, and ERIC are some of the more important databases to consider. One that is often forgotten is WestLaw Campus Research. Because it covers the complicated and complex world of delinquency, and youth programs to help troubled youth, it should be a primary resource for many youth workers. You will also want to consult the database, JSTOR, for full-text articles. For electronic book articles, choose Credo Reference or Gale's Virtual Reference Library.


V.    SELECTED NON-SUBSCRIPTION (FREE) DATABASES FOR ONLINE FULL-TEXT JOURNALS

VI.   VARIOUS ESSAYS: Contained in the Following Books: (Other books obtainable through  (interlibrary loan.)

VII.   INTERLIBRARY LOANS:

If you want to borrow a journal article from another college or university, go to RichLyn Library's home page.  Next, click the link, Interlibrary Loan and choose the article form. Complete the article form for the journal article, submit it, wait to be contacted, and pick up your article at the circulation desk. If you are using Ebsco's databases, there is an ILL link after each article that is not full text. You may simply click on the link and submit the form to receive the article. When the library receives the item, you will be notified by email, and you may pick it up at the circulation desk. Always check your email accounts, however, since many articles are sent via email.

If you want to borrow a book from another library, you must set up an account. Establishing an account is a simple process if you follow the instructions as found at the INTERLIBRARY LOAN BOOK REQUEST FORM web page. If you borrowed a book, return it to the library according to the due date or there could be a fine. If the item is a journal article, there is no need to return it. The process takes from 48-hours to two weeks. Therefore, allow yourself time to obtain the item[s] and to take notes.
