Online journals services can be split into two categories:
1. Services for finding online versions of specific journals.
These services are useful if you are trying to track down a journal from a reading list or bibliography. They are suitable for answering questions such as "where can I find Law Quarterly Review?" They are not suitable for answering questions such as "where will I find articles on criminal law?" or "where will I find articles by Joe Bloggs?" or "where will I find Smith's article on theft?".
The main services for finding online versions of specific journals are the Search our Law Report and Journals database and Oxford University eJournals. > Find out more about how to use these services.
2. Services for finding articles by subject or author.
