Geography

A guide for finding resources for geography students at Augustana College.

Finding Articles

Below are listed some of the library's journal databases that may be of use to you for geographical research. Some databases may be more appropriate for your topic than others, so pay attention to the databases' descriptions and be sure to search in a variety of resources, both on this page and in the library's other collections. 

Looking for research from a particular journal? Below are a list of the geography-related journal titles the library has subscriptions to. You can locate these resources by using the Journal Search feature of the library's homepage.

Note: This list may not reflect all of our journal titles related to geography. Additionally, if at any point access to one of these titles becomes unavailable or the library does not yet have access to an issue you need due to full-text delays, you may still request articles via Interlibrary Loan (ILL).

If an article doesn't have a full-text link in the database, it doesn't mean you can't access the article! Follow these steps to locate the full-text of an article.

  1. Look carefully to be sure there isn't a link to the full text. It might say "full text" or it might say "PDF full text" or "HTML full text."
  2. If you don't see a full-text link, visit the library homepage and enter three or more words from the article title in the search box, in quotation marks.  
    For example, to find this article:
    Foster, Jacob G., Andrey Rzhetsky, and James A. Evans. "Tradition and innovation in scientists’ research strategies." American Sociological Review 80.5 (2015): 875-908.
    ...you might copy/paste "tradition and innovation in scientists'" to the OneSearch box.


     
  3. If Augustana doesn't have immediate access to the article you need, request it through Interlibrary Loan.
