Accessing Journals through EBSCO

This libguide will show students how to access the EBSCO journal database through the DLC portal

Toolbox

 

The toolbox gives you access to a range of things you can do with the article you've found. Some are going to be more useful to us than others.

The ones you will need the most are the Cite and Permalink buttons

Cite - Will create an automatic citation for you that you need to include in your bibliography / work cited page if the information in the article has contributed to your thinking.

If you click on citations you see a table with a whole range of citation styles. Different subjects will want different citation styles. Make sure you are using the correct one.

The most common are APA, Chicago and MLA.

For this class you will be using MLA. You have a hand out on this.

 

Permalink - Will give you a direct link back to the article that won't timeout if you are not using the page for a while.
