To find the material that is identified in a search of ABELL, you will need to interpret the citation and identify the essential elements for use in the Library's Online Catalog and the English Library Periodical List.
NOTE: Some non-essential elements have been omitted from the examples in the interest of clarity. Most citations are longer and include more elements than are displayed below. I have put an asterisk by those parts of the citation that you would use in finding the materials in the Library.
