Q. What is a periodical?

Periodicals are publications -- like newspapers, magazines, and scholarly journals -- that are published periodically.

Although the Nancy Thompson Learning Commons no longer maintains a print periodicals collection, a great many periodicals are available online through the library databases. Full-text online articles may be accessed by using any computer located on campus, while off-campus users can access these resources by logging into any of the library's databases with their Kean Google email username and password.  

You can identify which database(s) provide access to articles published in a particular publication by searching for that periodical's name in the Periodicals A-Z list.
