Finding Reviews

A number of librarians, both public (is that the correct term?) and K-12 ha ve described their inability to access many forms of reviews due to tight b udgets. If I might be so bold, I would like to suggest you check out the li brary at your local university. We have a public access policy that allows members of the community to use our collection and computers for research p urposes. A local librarian in my area could come to campus once a month and access all of our online journal subscriptions, which include nearly every source that has been mentioned in these discussions, FOR FREE.

I’ve checked our library policy pages and the terms of use for these jour nals, and on-site users are included. So, if you need access to journals, p lease check out what your local university has to offer. You may find this a handy way to find resources for your collections.

Best, Tricia
