Electronic journals and newspapers can be accessed from the Electronic Journals & Newspapers List or by conducting a title search in Mirlyn.

Google Scholar helps you find scholarly literature that is available via the Internet. It includes articles, theses, books, and abstracts from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities and other web sites. At this time, Google Scholar is more heavily weighted in the sciences and does not reflect the broad scope of arts literature in the art-related periodical indexes.

Note: Setting the preferences in Google Scholar to include the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor campus will allow UM affiliates to link directly to UM full-text subscriptions, Mirlyn holdings, and Interlibrary Loan.
