How Do I Find ~ Literary Criticism

Articles from Scholarly Journals

  • When to Use Them
    Use articles from scholarly journals when doing in-depth research or when you're interested in a specific aspect of an author's work. Articles are more narrowly focused than books. For example, it would be easier to find an article about the theme of marriage in Edith Wharton's Custom of the Country than one that provides an overview of her works.

Then follow the "Find It" link to see if our library has the journal in which the article is published.
