Recent Articles

How do I find the most recent articles published in a particular journal?

 

There are two ways to find recently published electronic issues of journals:

1. Use the Mathematics Library's database of Current Journals of Interest to Mathematicians, which is available on the Library's homepage under "Reference & Research Tools." Enter the journal's full title or abbreviated title in the appropriate box to begin the search: 

 

Current Journals Database

 

If the journal is available online, there will be a link to the most recent issue, along with the date that issue became available:

 

Current Journals Results Page

 

The link provided for the most recent volume or issue will bring you directly to that issue online (if you are off campus, you will be prompted to enter your NetID and password):

 

Most Recent Issue

 

2. Use the Library's Online Research Resources (ORR) to search for the journal of interest by title.  (A link to the ORR is available on the Mathematics Library's homepage under "Reference & Research Tools."):

 

Browsing ORR

 

Searching for a journal in the ORR will identify the extent of the library's electronic access to the journal of interest.  If the journal is available through the present, clicking on the link will bring you to the most recent issue:

 

ORR Search Results

 

If you want to browse the library's new electronic journals like you would browse through the new print journals inside the library, you can visit the New E-Journals page (there is also a link to this page on the Mathematics Library homepage). Here you can see all the new journal issues which have become available to the UIUC community in a given week.
