National Geographic (formerly called the National Geographic Magazine.) 

 

1. Go to the UW Libraries webpage, enter "National Geographic" in the QuickSearch box, and click on the magnifying glass.The Search results page will display.

 

2. Click on the National Geographic (Online) link at the top of the page. Tip: always select the journal from the results page that has (Online) in the title. The Full Record for the journal will display.

 

3. Click "Online Availability" on the left side of the page and select a database ( ex. Gale Academic OneFile) to view the magazine or journal. 

 

4. The option "Physical Availability" will display on the left if the libraries own physical copies of the publication. Click on "Physical Availability" to jump to physical location details for National Geographic. Physical copies of this magazine are located on Level One of Coe Library under G1.N27.

 

Patrons can use the above steps to find most journals and magazines (ex., The Economist, Cell, Psychology Today, etc.)

Financial Times of London

UW Libraries does subscribe to The Financial Times. We currently only receive it in a digital format, and, unfortunately, the publisher that provides access to The Financial Times embargoes online digital content for a month.

Online access to The Financial Times is through this link.

Enter "Financial Times" into the QuickSearch box on the UW Libraries' webpage, and select "Financial Times (London, England:Online)". The next page that appears is a list of databases that provide access to that publication. Some of the databases provide access to earlier issues. Use the Financial Times Historical Archive 1888-2010 to access older editions. Most of the databases are back to 1996. As stated, the publisher imposes a one-month embargo on content, so you cannot access the most current issues.
