As discussed in the 1st Campus Session (16.2.10) there are a number of specialist journals accessible from MDX that have information – this can be in person OR you should be able to get to them distance using Athens with your Student ID. Other universities and libraries have this type of system, so it is handy to know if you are looking up your own information.
Directions for getting into Electronic Journals

Electronic Resources
Databases – this goes to general journal holdings OR
Ejournals if you know the name already i.e. Research in Dance Education – then got to Intergenta – search articles by year and volume – you can download electronically.
IF THE JOURNAL REQUIRES AN ATHENS LOG IN – GIVE YOUR STUDENT ID and PASSWORD
(this means that the university pays a fee to access the journal). I have also attached an example of some articles I downloaded from Research in Dance Education.
Could you please use these directions to try out the journals and get back to me about how you get on?
Hi paula, i have been having problems with viewing journals with athens and still with this it won't let me log in, i have contacted the institution administrator and hope this will help as i have found lots of journals that i want to read but cant get onto them!
ReplyDeletehi Paula,
ReplyDeleteThanks for this step-by-step guide.
It will not accept my password though for the Athens login???

Right I will have a look about this. Also you can try emailing the Library staff for help - that is what I am going to do right now to ask.
